Sergiu Mocanu, the leader of the Popular Action Movement and former Adviser-at-Large to President Vladimir Voronin, is accusing the Ministry of Justice of political partiality.

Recently, the Ministry requested the General Prosecutor's Office to investigate into the activities of the Popular Action Chairman, in particular his presentation of forged signatures of Movement members for registration of this new organization. The Ministry maintains that after such fakes were crossed out from the list, the number of genuine signatures remaining was substantially below 5 thousand – the law-stipulated minimum for party registration.

On Wednesday, Sergiu Mocanu was interrogated in prokuratura, after which he stated to the press, “The Ministry of Justice is just fulfilling President Vladimir Voronin’s political order… My former boss is desperately trying to plot a criminal persecution of the Popular Action leadership so as to intimidate us and make us silent and obedient.”

The Popular Action wrote in its Statement today, “The nearer the parliamentary elections, the uglier political struggle is becoming in Moldova. We would like to remind President Voronin one thing: the human history has known political regimes by far more brutal than his, but all the same all of them fell one day.”
