Integrity Agency Says Fmr Union Leader Marius Petcu Cannot Acount For EUR725,000 In Revenue

The agency said Petcu failed to account for about EUR725,000 in income he amassed while he was head of the Sanitas and CNSLR-Fratia unions.

Integrity agency inspectors started evaluating Petcu’s wealth in November 2010 and found a discrepancy of over 3 million lei (roughly EUR725,312) between his wealth and his income as union leader, the agency said in a press release Monday.

Petcu, one of the wealthiest union leaders in Romania, was indicted in April this year and is awaiting trial for alleged bribe taking.
