Innovative way to fight corruption among police force in Moldova
Interior Minister takes police officers to theater play, says "we're in deep crap"
Interior Minister Victor Catan took police officers to a theater play today. The performance, called Made in Moldova, was written by famous editorialist and screenwriter Constantin Cheianu and directed by Sandu Grecu. It covers issues like corruption and institutional indifference in the country.
Mr. Catan expressed his hope that the play would be a good lesson to police forces in Moldova, who have often been accused of corruption and incompetence, and who have very low positive polling numbers. The Minister quoted a line in the play at one point, saying that "we're in deep crap."
A lot of Moldovans were also shocked by the alleged police abuse and torture of anti-Communist protesters in April 2009.
