Agriculture Minister in Moldova dismissed after corruption charges
"I expect more such initiatives in the near future. There are still very many corrupt officials in the government," Dodon wrote on his Facebook page.
Moldova's Prime Minister Pavel Filip had asked Dodon last week to approve the suspension of Grama, who has been detained as a suspect in a scheme to illegally expropriate state-owned vineyards and buildings.
Anti-corruption prosecutors say more than a dozen people are suspected of involvement in a scheme to illegally lease land and buildings owned by the National College of Viticulture and Winemaking. Prosecutors arrested 12 people in the case last year.
