ANI, a body that screens public officials’ wealth and interests, said it found that Teodor Victor Alistar was in incompatibility between January 23, 2007 and March 1, 2009, when he had filled the public position of spokesman within the National Agency of Civil Servants, the position of executive manager within the Romanian Association for Transparency, starting 2004, and had also worked as a lawyer at the “Alistar Teodor Victor” practice, starting January 23, 2007.
ANI also said Teodor Victor Alistar is no longer allowed to hold public positions or dignities, except the electoral ones, for a three-year period, until August 7, 2012. Victor Alistar is allegedly in positional incompatibility, as he has failed to challenge ANI’s decision regarding his incompatibility. Victor Alistar has denied being under any ban at the moment.
ANI head Horia Georgescu on Tuesday told MEDIAFAX that ANI’s litigation with Victor Alistar, executive manager of Transparency International Romania, has ended, adding Alistar is banned from holding a public position.
Under the law, people found in incompatibility are no longer allowed to hold public positions for a three-year period as of when a decision in this respect becomes final.
Prime Minister-designate Victor Ponta on Tuesday said the legal bodies decided the accusations against Alistar, banning him from holding public office, are ungrounded, adding Alistar will definitely be part of his new Cabinet.
