In Moldova, individuals who have suffered damages in the course of criminal or administrative proceedings will be able to file a claim with the government for compensation for the damages incurred

Moldova’s parliament has backed in first reading a bill that would overhaul the rules for state compensation in cases of unlawful actions during criminal and administrative proceedings. The initiative is designed to create a clearer and more predictable framework for claims, while also aligning the country’s legal system with EU accession requirements and European human rights case law.
