The police have detained the doctor who admitted to violating the secrecy of the vote in a nursing home in Comrat. Authorities discovered that he actively helped to falsify ballots by voting on behalf of another person and abused his position to influence the elections and the referendum.
“He admitted that he received money for using his position for this purpose,” stated the press release from the General Inspectorate of Police.
It was also noted that during the searches, evidence of the doctor’s corrupt actions was found, including transfers received through “Promsvyazbank” from the criminal organization “Șor” to intervene in the elections.
According to police information, the detainee owns several properties, which will be subject to seizure to verify their origin. If the legality of the funds cannot be confirmed, the assets may be confiscated.
“Parallel financial investigations will be conducted to determine the sources from which the properties were acquired, especially if they come from illegal sources,” the authorities added.
In this case, a criminal case has been opened, and the suspect could face up to 5 years in prison.
