ANAF requests the transfer of the rent recovery process from the Iohannis spouses, after the Sibiu Tribunal lifted the seizure of their assets.

The Romanian state, through ANAF, has decided to request the transfer of the process in which it seeks the recovery of the sum of one million euros from the spouses Carmen and Klaus Iohannis, regarding rents for a property occupied abusively. The request was registered at the Alba Iulia Court of Appeal, after the Sibiu Tribunal rejected the establishment of a seizure on the assets of the former president. ANAF justifies the transfer by the possible influence of local relationships on the impartiality of the judges, considering that Klaus Iohannis was the mayor of Sibiu for 14 years.

Additionally, ANAF fears that, without precautionary measures, the assets of the Iohannis spouses could be alienated, leaving the Tax Authority without the possibility of recovering the debts. ANAF's action aims to compel the Iohannis spouses to pay compensation for the non-use of a 50% share of a property in Sibiu, the total amount being 320,000 euros, plus penalties. The Romanian state has already obtained the right to register the property, taking over the part that belonged to Klaus Iohannis.
