The actions of the department of the Prosecutor’s Office responsible for political prosecutions are literally replicating the postulates of one the organizers of Stalinist repressions, A. Vyshinski.
The speech of the Stalinist prosecutor, A. Vyshinski, at the trial on the case of the anti-Soviet Trotskyist center in the 1930s.
From the interview of the head of the department within the Prosecutor's Office, V. Morari, on the cases of political detainees, Tipovici-Moraru-Amerberg-Grigorciuc (europalibera.org, January 2015).
«We must not approach the cases involving conspiracy, on coup d’état, from the standpoint of please give us the protocols, decisions, membership cards, number of membership cards; we should not expect from the conspirators to certify their criminal activities at the notary. No lucid person can frame the issue on cases of state conspiracy. Yes, we do have some evidence in this regard. But even in the absence of the evidence, we would nonetheless be entitled to press charges on the basis of accounts and explanations of the accused and witnesses, and, if I may, on the basis of indirect suspicions”.
“It is very hard to speak about collecting evidence in such high-resonance cases because the people have been very well prepared. They are familiar with the tactics and methods of documenting criminal actions, and so they do not talk on the phones. It is very hard to come up with convincing evidence meant to 100% prove it. Yes they evidence is indirect and shows only the intent – the existence of weapons, the existence of prior deal on what they were planning to do. If we are to draw on these two concrete cases, we concluded on the basis of collected under the criminal investigation that the presence of these individuals out of detention can generate mass riots… Perhaps we took them off guard, yet I personally opted for such measures because I had the reasonable doubt that delayed actions would have led to much more negative consequences that their arrest, therefore we opted for arrests and searches… We are guided by the society’s general interest – to avoid mass disorders”.
