Moldovan prosecutor to be reevaluated: Superior Council of Prosecutors rejects Vetting Commission’s negative report

The former deputy head of the Anticorruption Prosecutor’s Office (PA), Vasile Plevan, will undergo a new evaluation after the Superior Council of Prosecutors (CSP) today rejected the negative report of the Prosecutors’ Evaluation Commission.

At today’s CSP meeting, only three CSP members voted in favor of approving the report. The other six votes were against, and therefore the document was sent back to the Vetting Commission for reevaluation.

The Commission has earlier completed the evaluation of prosecutor Vasile Plevan from PA and found that he did not meet the ethical integrity criteria set out in Law No. 252/2023. Consequently, the Commission proposed that he fail the external evaluation.

Also today, the CSP appointed Sergiu Rusu and Tatiana Rutcovschi as members of the graduation commission of the National Institute of Justice.

Vasile Plevan in October 2019 was named as the winner of the competition for the position of prosecutor at the Anticorruption Prosecutor’s Office and served as acting deputy head until March 2025, when his position was terminated by order of the then Prosecutor General, Ion Munteanu.
