The Romanian Magistrates' Association (AMR) requests Prime Minister Dacian Ciolos release from position Justice Minister Raluca Pruna, arguing that the topics suggested for debate by the latter have no relation to the objectives of the judiciary system.
AMR claims that between Raluca Pruna and the magistrates' corps "there are irreconcilable differences, stemming from, among others, the behavior adopted by the minister, who, unjustifiably, and as such, impermissibly, reports in a distorted, false (on numerous occasions) manner the situations that have been brought to her attention in a documented manner, even though said matters were not / are not of a nature to raise any doubts or determine differing or contrary interpretations to the sense in which they were formulated and argumented."
The Magistrates' Association also declares that, in the approximately ten months of her mandate, Raluca Pruna has generated, "as a result of numerous unacceptable, unsubstantiated positions", a break between the public position occupied and the magistrates' corps, proving, in these conditions, that there is no remedy for a state of normality to return.
AMR mentions that the justice system is setting off alarm bells regarding the losses Romania is exposing itself to through keeping at the head of the Justice Ministry a person who, through inexcusable public statements, leads to the damaging of the image and credibility of a state power. AGERPRES
