Vitalie COSTIȘANU

This article is devoted to the field of competence of criminal investigation bodies and has as its object of study the competence of the criminal investigation body of the National Anticorruption Center in the light of the changes made to the Criminal Procedure Law. The purpose of this study was to determine the place and role of the National Anticorruption Center in the context of criminal prosecution bodies through the prism of the new assigned material powers.
The final conclusion is that the authority to manage the criminal investigation body of the National Anti-Corruption Center from the competence of the Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office was unjustifiably transferred to the competence of the Chisinau Municipal Prosecutor’s Office. At the same time, it was found that the material competence of the criminal investigation body of the National Anticorruption Center was extended, exceeding the limits of corruption and related crimes, reaching to include categories of crimes that were previously within the competence of other criminal investigation bodies and targeting areas that they concern the economic and political security of the state. The broadening of the competence in these areas seems to have been conditioned by the realities of the moment when the Republic of Moldova was mentioned, both economically and politically, and the need to protect the state entity against new „financial excesses” on the part of political exponents similar to „Theft” Billion”.
