The committee modified the bill according to the Constitutional Court decision which found a large number of its provisions unconstitutional.
According to Iordache, the revised version of the bill will be sent to the Senate next week, and should be voted by the Lower Chamber the week after that.
The revised version eliminates the phrase “thorough evidence and clues” which replaced “reasonable presumption” regarding conditions to start prosecution, which was deemed unconstitutional.
In total, the Constitutional Court ruled that a number of 64 provisions of the bill were unconstitutional, out of 100 which were challenged by the Romanian President, the Supreme Court and opposition parties.
