DIICOT prosecutors have detained six people, including Viorel Pașca, the leader of the Dumbrava Association, and his family, as part of an investigation into the exploitation of vulnerable individuals.

They are accused of forming an organized criminal group and human trafficking. Following the searches, 217 bank cards, considerable sums of money, and identity documents for 409 housed individuals were confiscated.

The group, active since 2020, allegedly misled donors and authorities, obtaining funds from donations and social benefits, while the victims, brought from hospitals and care centers, were kept in inadequate conditions. Authorities have decided to relocate vulnerable individuals to appropriate care centers.
