Man who tried to detonate grenade in front of Prosecutor's office gets 150-dollar fine

A man who threatened to detonate a grenade in front of the Prosecuror's Office in Chisinau on Thursday, October 15 because he said his son had been wrongfully accused received a 1,500-leu (150 U.S. dollars) fine today.

The man appeared in front of the Prosecutor's office the day after a grenade detonated in downtown Chisinau, injuring over 40 people. Authorities said there were no connections between the two cases. At the time, however, the event contributed to a very tense atmosphere in the capital.

A criminal investigation has been opened on the people who sold the man the grenade.
