Șefii Poliției de Frontieră Halmeu și Biroului Vamal Halmeu, reținuți împreună cu alți 7 funcționari publici

On October 5, 2026, prosecutors detained the heads of the Halmeu Border Police and Customs Office, along with seven other public officials, for bribery and forming an organized crime group. The National Anticorruption Directorate initiated legal action against these individuals, who are accused of coordinating illegal activities related to border control and customs. The group allegedly operated in three tiers, with top officials managing the scheme and lower-level agents collecting bribes from drivers crossing the border. Investigations revealed significant sums of money exchanged, with over €300,000 seized during searches. The accused will be presented for preventive arrest on October 6, 2026, while further investigations continue against additional officers involved.
