UPDATE! All six border guards called for questioning were detained.
Border Police Agents C. Ionel, U. Ioan, AC Gabriel, S. Lucian, FR Emil and PG Silviu were detained for 24 hours. Prosecutors accuse him of allegedly demanding and receiving sums of between 50 lei and 100 euros from the drivers of freight trucks to make it easier for them to reduce waiting times in the column of cars, allowing them access in front of the formed column. .
At the same time, they are accused of taking bribes in order not to quarantine a person, a passenger in a TIR, but also to turn a blind eye to the control of documents of freight carriers. The six detained customs officers will be presented tomorrow to the judge of rights and freedoms within the Bihor Tribunal, with a proposal for pre-trial detention for 30 days.
Initial news: Sources JB & Bihon said that law enforcement officers searched the border police stations, apparently also at the homes of some border guards, but also at some cars that arrived at customs as well as at the Border Police headquarters in Borș. It is certain that the traffic was directed to Borș II for a long time, but queues were still formed at the entrance and exit of Borș I. DGA police officers and prosecutors searched a corruption case, which would target some border police officers. which would have facilitated the illegal access of several people to the Schengen area.
Until the time of writing, neither the DGA nor the Bihor Prosecutor’s Office had sent any communication regarding the morning raids or other information in this case, so clarifications are expected regarding the acts of corruption and the border guards concerned.
