More and more Democrat Liberals have problems with the judicial system despite the fact that the party took upon itself to fight corruption, one newspaper reads on Tuesday. Elsewhere in the news, 136,000 Romanians hold gun permits and guns. European Commissioner for customs union, taxing, audit and anti-fraud Algirdas Semeta calls for an efficient collaboration between the EU and Romania in the anti-fraud fight. On a lighter tone, a Romanian received American citizenship at 72 years old.
Romania libera reads that more and more Democrat Liberals have problems with the judicial system despite the fact that the party portrays itself as an anti-corruption fighter. What is more, the problems deputies or Senators have seemed to be ignored by the party itself, as they maintain their functions and membership.
The newspaper wonders who the party will manage to convince the public for the implementation of reforms with such problems within the party itself. PDL member Frunzaverde declared for the newspaper that the party does not have more members with problems than other parties, but news televisions popularize just those in the Democrat Liberal party.
The party never defended publicly any of those who turned out to be guilty or investigated by anti-graft prosecutors and always left the justice to do its duty, another PDL member declared. Moreover, PDL informal leader Gheorghe Flutur said that a difference must be made between those who actually get convicted and those who are suspected.
According to the party’s statute, members of the party are automatically excluded if temporary arrested. If there are suspicions, members can willingly give up their membership until their situation is clarified in justice.
