The record

Prosecutors describe retrospective changes to data after mandatory checks, interference with on-site inspections and the concealment or alteration of findings. The charges include subsidy fraud, unlawful management of EU funds and false certification. The indictment sets out the prosecution’s case; it is not a verdict.
