Ex-MP Iurie Bolboceanu, charged with spying and country treason, spent last night in Chisinau’s emergency hospital.

He was taken because of accusing heart pains. After the medical investigations he was returned to prison. 

According to prosecutors, the former civil servant offered social, political and economic information to undercover agents working for foreign intelligence services.

Bolboceanu received enormous amounts of money for his services but was cuffed last Friday, being caught red-handed.

He is in 30-custody and faces a sentence of up to 20 years of prison.
