48 de percheziții în București și șase județe, într-un dosar de evaziune fiscală și spălare de bani în construcții

On October 15, prosecutors and police launched a major operation against a group suspected of tax evasion and money laundering in construction. The operation involved 48 searches across Bucharest and six counties, targeting over 20 individuals with estimated damages exceeding 55 million lei. The group allegedly used shell companies and fictitious invoices since 2021 to evade taxes and withdraw money from the legal economic circuit. Investigators found that many involved companies lacked real economic capacity and were used solely to create a facade of legitimate business transactions. The identified financial mechanisms included successive transfers between companies to obscure the origin of funds, with significant losses calculated for the state budget and commercial entities.
