Moldovan Deputy Economy Minister in Custody Over Corruption Case
19:46 GMT 31.03.2017 (Updated: 21:31 GMT 31.03.2017) Moldova’s Deputy Economy Minister Valeriu Triboi was detained in relation to a corruption case, Press Secretary of the country’s National Anti-Corruption Center Angela Starinschi told Sputnik Friday.
CHISINAU (Sputnik) — The news comes after Director of the National Anti-Corruption Center Viorel Chetraru confirmed earlier in the day that the searches are being conducted in the offices of nation's economy ministry.
"The deputy economy minister was detained over a corruption case. The searches continue. The details will follow," Starinschi said.
Prior to being appointed as deputy economy minister in 2014, Triboi had been working as the director of Moldova’s Public Property Agency.
On March 15, the searches were also carried out at the office and place of residence of Moldova’s Minister of Agriculture and Food Industry Eduard Grama in relation to a case regarding the transfer of 9.9 hectares (0,038 square miles) of land near Chisinau. The anti-corruption authorities subsequently lodged corruption charges against Grama, after which he resigned and was placed under a 30-day house arrest.
