Riigikogu Member Tõnis Mölder’s Immunity Status Remains Under Review Following Ombudsman’s Decision Tõnis Mölder, who previously faced accusations of treason and subsequently joined the Riigikogu as an independent member, remains the subject of ongoing criminal proceedings. The Ombudsman Ülle Madise has issued a proposal regarding his legal status, aligning with the prosecutor’s recommendation. Last week, the prosecutor’s office submitted materials and a request to the ombudsman seeking a recommendation for the removal of immunity from Tõnis Mölder’s membership within the Riigikogu. Madise subsequently agreed with the prosecutor’s stance, indicating a continued pursuit of criminal proceedings against the individual. The decision highlights a complex legal situation surrounding Mölder’s involvement in the Riigikogu. While the Ombudsman’s endorsement of the prosecutor’s request suggests a continuation of the investigation, it does not represent a final determination of guilt. The National Broadcaster reported on the developments, emphasizing the ongoing need for the Riigikogu to consider the Ombudsman’s recommendation. Further updates are expected as the criminal proceedings continue. — Word count: 248 Topics: #ombudsman #proposal #agreed Post navigation PRIIT PULLERITS: The victory in the fight against Tõnis Sildaru is also a loss for me and Kersti Kaljulaid(4) KATRIN KULL Vallads have hijacked the money from the rent for the training grounds.
