Romanian justice minister quits over corruption decree

Published

on



Romanian Justice Minister Florin Iordache has resigned over the decree to reduce penalties for corruption and the subsequent mass protest and international condemnation.

Mr Iordache drafted the bill, which the government withdrew following the public outcry.

The decree could have been used to shield politicians from prosecution for corruption for graft.
