Six individuals and a company are facing trial for environmental crimes in Brașov. One accused allegedly illegally extracted sand and gravel since 2022 and buried hazardous waste to cover up illegal activities. Investigations revealed that between February 2025 and April 2026, the accused stored over 868 tons of mixed waste without environmental authorization. Following a control, the company was fined for illegal waste management. To evade further penalties, the accused arranged for the illegal burial of additional waste. The illegal landfill was created without necessary permits, causing significant financial damage to local authorities. The company owners were detained and are currently under house arrest, with the municipality seeking compensation for cleanup costs.
