The president of the Romanian Chamber of Commerce, Mihai Daraban, denies any involvement in a major smuggling and tax evasion case linked to his brother, Gabriel Daraban, former commercial director of Oil Terminal. Gabriel was detained and placed under judicial control along with 42 others, including public officials. Prosecutors have seized numerous properties and bank accounts related to the suspects. The investigation by DIICOT revealed a network involved in smuggling diesel fuel, with Gabriel allegedly approving the release of 66,000 tons of diesel without tax payments, potentially costing the state up to 50 million euros.
