Romania needs magistrates specialized in money laundering

on Saturday, May 19, 2012
Romania president Traian Basescu believes that there are deficiencies in the judging of money laundering cases, the road towards a final sentence being too long. The solution suggested is to have specialized magistrates.

"It is clear that we have a problem with the speed in judging money laundering and organized crime cases", said the head of state during a debate organized by the National Anti-Money Laundering Office. Having specialized magistrates is obligatory, since deciding upon a sentence may prove difficult for a judge who is not familiar with such cases, Basescu said.

"It is in vain to convict a felon 10 years after the file is submitted to a Court, because all this time he continues his activity", says Basescu.
