Gheorghe Pintilie was born as Pintilie Bodnarenko in 1902 in Tiraspol, Russian Empire (now in Transnistria, Moldova). He died in Bucharest, Romania, in 1985. Nicknamed Pantiuşa, he was one of the first and main organizers of the repression in Communist Romania.
At the founding of the Securitate on August 30, 1948, he became the first Director of this organization (the positions of Deputy Directors went to Alexandru Nicolschi and Vladimir Mazuru). He stayed as general director of the Securitate and as an adjunct minister in the Ministry of the Interior until his retirement in the 1960s. He was the chief of Gospodăria de partid, in control of all Party property, between 1945 si 1948.
