In Moldova, Plato is accused of several criminal cases. According to the prosecutor’s office, in 2011, the businessman created and headed the criminal organization “Landromat”, which operated in Moldova, Ukraine, Russia and other countries. The organization washed money through the Moldovan Bank, as well as banks and financial institutions of Russia and Lithuania.

In 2016, Plato was detained in Ukraine, after which the Pechersk court ruled on his arrest and extradition to Moldova.

In addition, Plato is the main person involved in the case of withdrawing money from Insurance companies asito, Moldasig and Alliance Insurance Group. In 2017, the businessman was sentenced to 12 years in prison.

In 2019, the High Chamber returned the case of withdrawal from insurance companies for review to the appeal, and, for its part, to the court of first instance. At the same time, the courts canceled Plato’s punishment in this case.

In parallel with this in 2020, at the initiative of the prosecutor’s office, they sent a fraud at Banca de Economii for review and the case of Platoomi, and Plato was released from prison. Prosecutor General Oleksandr Stoyonlog, who was now running in the election and supported by the pro-Russian opposition, then emphasized that the real beneficiary of 869 million lei, withdrawn from the BEM, was another oligarch-fugitive Vladimir Plahotniuk. In June 2021, the court fully justified Plato in the BEM.

Two criminal cases are considered against Plato in court. One of them concerns a possible withdrawal of $ 23.4 million from MoldindConbank under the guise of loans for Ilan Shore, the other is about the illegal opening of a bank in the bank in the name of the Judge of the High Judicial Chamber of the Republic of Moldova, which transferred 300,000 euros obtained by crime. This was done without the judge’s knowledge to cough and harm the reputation, the investigation says.
