NAC conducts searches in Chisinau and Comrat in a case of issuance of driver's licenses
15.03.2024 277 ViewsSeveral searches are carried out today by the officers of the National Anti-corruption Centre in the municipality of Chisinau and the municipality of Comrat on a criminal case regarding the sustained influence on civil servants when issuing driver's licenses.
According to the facts investigated by the NAC, a person, previously convicted for corruption offences, claiming to have influence over public officials empowered to examine vehicle drivers and issue driving licenses, claimed, accepted and received financial means that they are not entitled to the amount of 1000 euros, in exchange for speeding up the issuance of the driver's license, without the support of the theoretical and practical tests of the exam by the candidate. At the same time, other financial means in the amount of 300 euros were received to issue, contrary to the law, the certificate confirming the support of an additional schooling course, including the medical certificate.
As part of the procedural actions carried out by the NAC officers, in the morning of 15.03.2024, under the leadership of the Chisinau Municipal Prosecutor's Office, 4 searches were carried out. As a result, a person suspected of committing the crime of influence peddling was detained, and two driving schools in the municipality of Comrat were among the searched locations.
The operation was carried out with the support of the Public Services Agency.
