Searches in Brașov: company administrator suspected of forging documents for European funds
On Monday, law enforcement carried out five simultaneous raids in Brașov county, targeting both private residences and the headquarters of a local enterprise. The operation is part of a criminal investigation coordinated by prosecutors.
The investigators' suspicions are directed at the company owner, who allegedly resorted to forged documents in order to access funds from a government programme intended for start-ups. Through this method, he hoped to obtain non-reimbursable funding without meeting the legal criteria.
Another accusation brought against him concerns employee salaries. It appears that the businessman retained from workers' wages the portion representing taxes and social contributions, but failed to transfer them to the competent authorities.
Following the searches, investigators are working to gather evidence that will clarify the involvement of each person in the facts being investigated. The case remains open.
