Romania, a central European country is in the headlines of many news mediums. Their PM is accused of money laundering, tax evasion and forgery. Even the president of the country has requested the PM to step down. The accusations come after it was alleged that Ponta, the PM had agreed with one of the senator to forge some documents that justified some financial payments. These payments were used by the PM to avail two luxury apartments and a car. When Ponta was elected as the PM, one of the very first things he did was appoint was appoint the same fellow culprit to a prominent position in the government. While the president believes that such a man should step down from PM position, the PM himself claims that he was appointed by the parliament and only parliament can dismiss him.
