A Police Superintendent Accuses (Template:Lang-ro) is a 1973 Romanian crime drama film by Sergiu Nicolaescu[1] and starring himself as Police Commissioner Tudor Moldovan.[2] The film is based on a true event, the Jilava Massacre which took place during World War II.

Plot

The story takes place in 1940 in Bucharest, Romania. The main character, police superintendent Moldovan, is responsible for investigating an organized massacre at the Viraga prison. In the massacre political opponents of the fascist regime of 1940 were killed, including a group of communist activists. The murderers belong to the powerful pro-Nazi Iron Guard organisation (also known as "Legion"), so Moldovan has to confront the legionnaires and personally one of their leaders, the former criminal Paraipan (Gheorghe Dinica).
