Chisinau, March 22 /MOLDPRES/- The powers of the Anticorruption Prosecutor's Office (PA) and those of the National Anticorruption Center (CNA) will be delimited when investigating high-level corruption cases. The government has approved amendments to the Code of Criminal Procedure, following the initiative of the Ministry of Justice, the government's communication and protocol department has reported.

The amendments aim to focus the capacities of certain institutions on grand corruption and were necessary considering that both the CNA and the PA are currently overloaded with petty corruption cases.

Therefore, the criminal investigation for high-level corruption will be carried out by the Anticorruption Prosecutor's Office, while the CNA will investigate systemic corruption. At the same time, petty corruption will be investigated by the criminal investigation body of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MAI) which will cooperate with the CNA.

The clear delimitation of the powers between the authorities responsible for investigating the causes of corruption will ensure the fulfillment of the conditions of the Action Plan for implementation of the measures proposed by the European Commission, as well as the Memorandum on economic and financial policies concluded with the IMF.
