It is unacceptable for a group of prosecutors to demand the suspension of the Constitutional Court of Romania (CCR)'s rulings, on Tuesday said the Justice Minister Tudorel Toader, in the meeting of the Section for Prosecutors with the Superior Council of Magistrates (CSM).
The Justice minister accused, in the same context, the existence in the public space of certain misinformation regarding the danger that the prosecutors' independence could be affected.
On 18 May, the General Assembly of the Prosecutors with the Brasov Court's Prosecutors Office requested the suspension of the adoption of a Constitutional Court's new ruling referring to the Justice Laws package until the Venice Commission sends its opinion.
"In accordance with the provisions of the Romanian Constitution, the International Treaties Romania is part of are mandatory and take precedence over the internal legal regulations, so that implicitly, the GRECO recommendations are also mandatory for the Romanian legislator," the Prosecutor's Office attached to Brasov Court said.
