CSM approved revocation of DNA prosecutors Doru Tulus and Mihaela Iorga
The prosecutors’ section of the Higher Magistracy Council (CSM) approved on Tuesday, the request of the National Anticorruption Directorate (DNA) chief prosecutor Laura Codruta Kovesi to revoke DNA prosecutors Doru Tulus and Mihaela Iorga. The CSM meeting for prosecutors, where Codruta Kovesi’s revocation request for Doru Tulus and Mihaela Iorga was discussed was held behind closed doors, upon the demand of DNA chief prosecutor.
Kovesi requested Mihaela Moraru Iorga’s revocation because she “did not register a denouncement according to legal provisions and did not present it to the chief prosecutor of the department she belonged to. Therefore penal dispositions could not be applied to the persons investigated.”
More exactly, the denouncement was received by the prosecutor via whatsapp.
In the case of Doru Tulus, the revocation was requested because he had sold his rights over unpaid salaries to businessman Mihai Rotaru. Later on, Rotaru was involved in one of National Authority for Restitution of Properties (ANRP) files and was indicter together with former democrat-liberal ( PDL )leader Ioan Oltean.
According to CSM sources quoted by Mediafax, the two prosecutors were not fired and will return to their former prosecution departments.
The approval made by the prosecutor section is consultative but is part of legal procedures for revocation. Later on the CSM decision will be sent to DNA chief prosecutor who will sign the revocation documents.
