Mugur Ciuvica, head of the Group for Political Investigations, has recently uncovered some documents showing the SRI (Romanian Secret Service) is spying on the National Liberal Party and on Liberal senator Norica Nicolai in particular. The accusation that the SRI is interfering in Romanian politics is relying on electronic documents. Both of them are signed by General Vasile Stanciu and on one of them there is also the signature of SRI deputy Florian Coldea.
