Prosecution actions in the case of the fraudulent granting of agricultural subsidies continue. Another 12 searches were carried out today by the officers of the General Territorial Directorate "North" of the NAC and the anti-corruption prosecutors at the residences and headquarters of the administrators of six companies that operate in the field of agriculture in the north of Moldova - in the municipality of Bălţi and in the districts of Drochia, Rîșcani, Fălesti and Glodeni.
As part of the criminal investigation, payment orders, tax invoices, certificates confirming the submission of subsidy files, mobile phones and other evidence relevant to the case were seized. Also, in the current days, two more denunciations were filed for similar acts of corruption in the granting of subsidies, on the basis of which two criminal prosecutions were initiated.
We remind, that on January 24, 2023, the officers of the National Anticorruption Center carried out criminal prosecution actions in 26 criminal cases, based on the abuse of office, passive corruption, active corruption, influence peddling and money laundering. Several civil servants from the Agency for Intervention and Payments for Agriculture (AIPA), as well as representatives of some economic agents, were detained for illegalities, committed when granting subsidies for agriculture.
Tomorrow, February 3, the Bălţi Court of Appeal is going to decide on the appeals of the defenders of the accused, pre-arrested for a period of 30 days.
