The Chief Prosecutor of the National Anti-corruption Directorate (DNA), Laura Codruta Kovesi was present in Romanian Intelligence Service (SRI) activities that were mainly public or related to institutional cooperation, declared on Wednesday night the president of the Standing Parliamentary Committee for the SRI Control, Adrian Tutuianu.
He specified that he asked the SRI head who participated on Wednesday in a committee's hearing, about the relationship between the DNA's Chief Prosecutor and Florian Coldea (former deputy director with the SRI).
"Of course I asked this too. The Internal Control Committee communicated that Ms Kovesi was present in SRI activities, which had mainly a public character or that were related to the institutional cooperation between the two institutions aforementioned. I would like to clarify something. The members of the Internal Control Committee are fully responsible for the findings they have made. There are documents, information we didn't have access to or we couldn't have access to. Consequently, they also took the responsibility when making certain statements and, as you know, discussions and everything that was commented upon today in this room was recorded and can be consulted by the authorities with attributions in the criminal investigation area, let's say, and later on, when they are unsealed by historians," stated Tutuianu.
Asked whether he considers necessary the modification of the package of laws regarding the National Security, Tutuianu said that carrying out such a law package also involves the Supreme Council for the National Defence (CSAT), the President, the Government. "As far as I and my colleagues are concerned, we have openly expressed the possibility to modify legal policing and bring them up-to-date," he added.
