Investigation Recorder: “The Great White Clan”
Recorder journalists published, on October 13, the first episode of the investigation into the mechanism by which the Romanian Orthodox Church builds churches with public money.
After eight months of documentation, the journalists from Recorder discovered what is the system through which BOR ends up in possession of public money and, at the same time, to fake any taxes to the state.
Using a false identity, the journalist Victor Ilie managed to penetrate the network and, thus, presented the way in which BOR easily reaches public money.
