Interpol puts Vladimir Plahotniuc on international wanted list. His lawyers say they will appeal the decision
The Interpol Files Control Commission has informed the International Police Cooperation Directorate of the General Police Inspectorate (IGP) that it has accepted a request to add a former political party leader to the international wanted list. The IGP announced this on its social media accounts. Although the statement did not mention the former politician's name, Veronica Dragalin, the head of the Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office, confirmed in a phone interview with Moldova 1 TV that it refers to Vladimir Plahotniuc. Plahotniuc's lawyer, Lucian Rogac, also confirmed this information and stated that he would challenge the decision to get a new ruling that would overturn the Interpol search for Vladimir Plahotniuc.
