The Association of Blind Persons and that of Tetraplegic Persons filed a
suit at the prosecution for abuses with the lists of persons that the
government compensates for the electric power.

According to them, the list of people to whom the government pays 80% of the bills has more than 10.000 names that benefit in an abusive way. Among them there are famous names, private companies, people who have lost their lives, etc.

The State Social Service, where these under privileged people are equipped with the respective certification say that they have an investigation undergoing for the lists that come from local units. They don’t exclude the possibility of falsifications.

“The file comes from the Local Units, and then goes to the Commission. I cannot speak with competency about the falsifications, and I cannot exclude them”, says Leonard Strazimi, from the Cash Payments Directory.

“The representatives of the Associations of People with Disabilities counts 15.000 persons, while there are 25.000 persons who benefit from the electrical energy compensation. Such abuses have been noted even in fuel reimbursement.”
