Moldova's Anti-corruption Center announced Oleg, ex-President Vladimir Voronin’s son, could be investigated for fiscal evasion and money laundering, DECA-press informs.

According to the Center, the formula of the money laundering method will be announced additionally, after the prosecutor approves the order of beginning the criminal investigation.

The anticorruption prosecutors in joint cooperation with the Anti-corruption Center will decide whether to put Voronin under criminal investigation or not. The materials about Oleg Voronin have been already gathered. He was heard today.

Before that, the Chisinau press wrote that, in 2008-2009, Oleg Voronin had made some expenditures of nearly 70 million MDL from his own card, while he pointed out in his income return the sum of four million MDL.

In his short press releases, Oleg Voronin said he would ask prosecutors where from journalists of the newspaper “Timpul de dimineata” (the publication that wrote about his expenditures) had found out the information about him.
At the same time, on Monday, on its web page, “Timpul” recognized the information on the expenditures was related to Oleg Voronin’s private life. The newspaper “TIMPUL” decided to publish them following the principle that – as son of the former head of state, about whom the press wrote he took advantage of his father’s status to manage his business – Oleg Voronin is already a public person”, the publication wrote.
