Anti-corruption prosecutors said Nastase appointed Ioan Melinescu as head of the National Office Against Money Laundering in 2000, on condition that he would block an investigation into a money transfer involving the former prime minister's wife.
Tužitelji za borbu protiv korupcije kazali su kako je Nastase 2000. godine imenovao Ioana Melinescua za šefa Nacionalnog ureda za borbu protiv pranja novca pod uvjetom da blokira istragu transfera novca koja je uključivala i suprugu bivšeg premijera.
