Romanian Prosecutor Arrested for Covering Up Priest's Rape Case

A major scandal has rocked Romania's justice system. Nicolae Valentin Cuzi, the former chief prosecutor of the Târgu Bujor District Prosecutor's Office in Galați County, was arrested Friday evening. He faces accusations of covering up a rape case involving a priest and a 15-year-old girl. 'Important evidence has disappeared from the case file,' according to prosecutors. The General Prosecutor's Office intervened, leading to Cuzi's arrest and the reopening of the investigation. The case has sparked outrage and calls for justice. The alleged perpetrator, a priest from a local parish, will now face renewed scrutiny.
