Data from 2025 show involvement of justice and public administration officials in corruption schemes related to the manipulation of legal procedures, abuse of public funds, and influence on decision-making...
Reports and investigations in 2025 show that corruption remains present in public institutions and the justice system. This is also evidenced in the annual report of SPAK, according to which documented cases of corruption include local officials, prosecutors, judges and police officers. The actions are related to illegal benefits, manipulation of legal procedures and use of public funds in violation of the law.
The 2025 indicators identify cases where individuals with functions in the justice system, including prosecutors, judges and judicial police officers, requested or accepted illegal benefits. Investigations show that these benefits are related to favoring procedural positions or facilitating security measures for accused persons.
In some cases, the benefits are not related to professional services, but to the use of public office to influence judicial decision-making. Abuse of official functions, failure to report corrupt acts, or deviation from legal procedures creates conditions for evasion of criminal responsibility and undermines the integrity of justice institutions.
Cases identified during 2025 show the involvement of public officials in schemes that use state institutions for illegal benefits. These practices harm the functioning of the administration and public trust in justice institutions.
Manipulation in public procurement procedures
The 2025 investigations show that public procurement processes were manipulated at several stages, from the drafting of documentation to the execution of contracts. In some procedures, contracting authorities and responsible officials determined technical specifications and fund calculations in favor of certain operators.
Competitors' bids were intentionally undervalued or disqualified. In some cases, formal control was not carried out by the responsible structures, creating a planned mismatch between favored operators and administrative procedures.
These practices have also been observed in projects financed by international donors. As a result, the public procurement procedure has been used to distribute funds in favor of certain interests, violating the principle of competition and transparency.
Corruption in public institutions
Investigations show that corruption in public administration involves various administrative and public functions. In some procurement and property legalization procedures, officials have received monetary benefits to favor applications or expedite procedures.
Active and passive corruption schemes have been identified in the police and customs control sectors. In these cases, illegal payments were used to evade controls or to facilitate activities that violate the law.
These actions create unfair advantages for certain individuals or operators and undermine fair competition and transparency in public institutions.
