Police officer from Neamț convicted of trafficking in influence. Court orders confiscation of 65,000 lei
A police officer from Neamț county has been sentenced with final effect for the offence of trafficking in influence. Magistrates have ordered the special confiscation of 65,000 lei, money which the law enforcement official allegedly received in exchange for the promise that he would intervene with public officials to resolve certain matters.
The case was tried by courts in Neamț, and the final decision was delivered recently. Investigators established that the police officer misused his official capacity to create the impression that he had decision-making power in certain cases or that he could influence the outcome of certain investigations.
Trafficking in influence is an offence that targets persons who claim to have influence over a public official and promise to persuade them to perform or refrain from performing an act that falls within their official duties, in exchange for material benefits.
