The prosecutors’ decision may be appealed in court.
Blejnar told prosecutors at hearings that he is innocent and will prove his innocence and said he will ask prosecutors to come up with solid evidence against him.
On July 17, anticorruption prosecutors issued a 30-day travel ban against Blejnar, which was also upheld by the Bucharest Court of Appeals.
Blejnar is accessed of being accessory to tax evasion and supporting an organized crime group. Seventeen other people are investigated in this case, including the former head of the National Customs Authority, Viorel Comanita.
