Prosecutors ask Romanian President to allow probe of justice minister for corruption
“BUCHAREST, Romania : Anti-corruption prosecutors on Tuesday accused the justice minister and a former telecommunications minister of corruption and asked President Traian Basescu to approve an investigation.
The prosecutors say that Justice Minister Tudor Chiuariu and former Telecommunications Minister Zsolt Nagy abused their positions "against the public interest" when they sold real estate owned by the national post office in April to a private company.
Chiuariu called the request "foolish revenge" and accused prosecutors of abusing their positions. He said they had asked for the investigation of him a day after he asked for two leading prosecutors to be dismissed. Nagy also denied the charges. Later Basescu said he would form a committee to analyze whether Chiuariu and Nagy should be investigated. Probes into public officials and former ministers must be approved by the president. Allegations surfaced last week that Chiuariu and Nagy had sold two plots of real estate to a private company reported to be linked to the ruling Liberal Party.
The Liberal prime minister, Calin Popescu Tariceanu, has not commented on the case.
Romania joined the European Union on Jan. 1 and has been told to clean up high-level corruption”.
