The MPs targeted are Oana Niculescu Mizil, Sonia-Maria Draghici, Mihai Radan, Stelica Iacob Strugaru and Andras-Levente Mate.

ANI started investigations in the case in November 2010 and found that the five lawmakers violated the provisions of Law 161/2003 ensuring public office transparency, preventing and punishing corruption. The agency notified general prosecutors regarding a possible conflict of interest.

According to ANI, procedures have been started to cancel the work contracts signed in violation of the law regarding conflicts of interest.
