Sorin Blejnar, former Head of the National Agency for Fiscal Administration (ANAF), and Viorel Comăniţă, former vice-president of the institution, were sued by prosecutors of the National Anticorruption Directorate in a case in which they are accused of bribe taking.

According to DNA statement, prosecutors decided the following to go to court: Sorin Blejnar (ANAF President at the time), Viorel Comăniţă (ANAF Vice-President at the time, with the role of leader of the National Customs Authority), Sorin Florea (Deputy Commissioner General of the Financial Guard at the time) - for taking bribes and Andrei Florentina Blejnar, a person in the family of the first defendant, for complicity in taking bribes.

Anti-corruption prosecutors note in the indictment sent to the Court that Blejnar, Comăniţă and Florea would have received money from a businessman, through intermediaries, so that, in return, by violating the duties of the service, the three would protect the illegal activity of the company coordinated by the businessman. Help given by Andreea Florentina Blejnar consisted in receiving the money destined to Sorin Blejnar, from two businessmen.
