A case of fraud with European funds for 45 million euros against Ivan Georgiev Tanev (son of the former Bulgarian Minister of Agriculture Georgi Tanev) and Sorin Adrian Gazdak (son-in-law of the former Romanian senator Cesar Magurianu) is underway in the Court of Appeal in Bucharest, reports Mediafax , quoted by BTA.
The case is from 2019.
In the context of the implementation of the Annual Plan for distribution of food for disadvantaged people, financed with European funds, the Agency for Payments and Intervention in Agriculture concluded two contracts with a Bulgarian company for the purchase of white wheat flour and sunflower oil. The relevant contracts were concluded following award procedures through open tenders with submission of online bids.
The Bulgarian company committed to deliver 36,250 tons of white wheat flour packaged in 1 kg cuts and 17,170,070 liters of sunflower oil bottled in 1 liter bottles. Instead, it delivered only 30 percent of the agreed quantities. The amount of 18,926,709 euros, which the company received in advance under the two contracts, ended up in the accounts of offshore companies in Cyprus, the agency said.
“From the evidentiary materials presented in the case, it is clear that the defendants, Bulgarian citizens Ivan Georgiev Tanev and Mila Ivo Georgieva, actually coordinated the company Viem Corporation Food, in which the de jure manager was a man of modest social status named Miloradov. The latter did not know about the company’s participation in the criminal acts investigated in the case. The company was created in the name of this individual so that in the event of problems in the company, responsibility would not be sought from its real coordinators,” notes Mediafax, referring to information from investigators.
