Evghenia Guțul, the Gagauzia region's Bashchana, faces a 9-year prison sentence on charges of illegally funding the 'Shor' party led by Ilan Shor, convicted of 'stealing the billion'. Prosecutors allege that Guțul accepted funds from an organized crime group and coordinated illegal activities between 2019-2022. Prosecutors have also demanded the confiscation of the sums involved and a 5-year ban on his participation in politics. Guțul denies the charges as politically motivated, while international reactions underline political tensions in Moldova.
