Chief Prosecutor of the National Anti-Corruption Directorate (DNA) Laura Codruta Kovesi said on Wednesday that the latest attack on justice is not by chance, as it is designed to "bring the Romanian state to its knees and humiliate the society."
She added that justice has been "under assault" for more than a year, and those who attacked are people with resources who want to strip the act of justice of credibility.
"Why are we being attacked? Because we have done our job, because we have proved corruption, that is why we are under attack. Justice has been under an assault (...) for over a year. If we take a look at who is attacking, we can see condemned defendants, defendants sent to trial (...) Moneyed people, people with resources, people who have the means and who want to strip the act of justice of credibility, who want to disparage corruption," said Kovesi.
