Hossu made public a report of the National Anticorruption Department DNA, dated January 31, 2011, which says prosecutor Claudia Rosu took notice with respect to Bogdan Hossu in the same file in which Marius Petcu, former leader of the CNSLR-Fratia union federation, is also probed. The charges brought against Hossu, apparently unrelated to the charges brought against Petcu, concern the preferential awarding of several contracts for major repair works on two hotels owned by SC Alfa Hotels SRL.
“In fact, repair works on the two hotels were carried out by a company based in Focsani and owned by Hossu’s nephew and the entire work was subcontracted to a company owned by Hossu’s son-in-law,” the report presented by Hossu reads.
Hossu also said the contracts for repair works on the two hotels, namely, the Carpati Hotel in mountain resort Predal, and the Parang Hotel in the resort Olanesti, were not even awarded, arguing the auction to award one of the contracts was not even completed.
He also said he received all the documents concerning this file from third parties and not from the DNA, as it was supposed to happen. Hossu said he never had anything to do with the DNA and, since he was not allowed to respond to the charges brought against him, he decided to address the Judicial Inspection Department with the High Council of Magistrates, denouncing the conduct of prosecutors Claudia Rosu and Lucian Papici who drafted the documents that incriminate him.
DNA on Wednesday said Hossu is neither the accused nor the defendant in any criminal file.
On December 8, 2011, the Bucharest Court sentenced Petcu to seven years in prison for corruption. Anticorruption prosecutors had indicted Petcu on April 21, 2011 on charges of bribe taking.
