MP Marina Tauber of the Shor Party has been ordered back under house arrest for at least the next 30 days after prosecutors successfully appealed a lower court’s decision to release her on bail a week ago.
“Maia Sandu’s government has yet again demonstrated that it has usurped power and is using it at its own advantage. The decision to place Marina Tauber back under house arrest, just a week after she was released under judicial supervision, confirms that the Prosecution Service as well as the courts are at the disposal of the current government, following its orders to the letter”, the party commented on the ruling.
On July 21, Tauber was stripped of parliamentary privilege before being arrested. Subsequently she was charged with two offenses: knowingly accepting illegal financing for the Shor Party from an organized criminal group; and falsifying the party’s financial report with the intention of withholding actual incomes and expenses. She spent almost two months in a remand facility before being released under house arrest on September 14.
