What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Romanian police detained Calin Georgescu and searched his home as part of an investigation into financial fraud. Prosecutors allege that Georgescu and a group convinced a businessman to provide a guarantee for a 6 million euro loan in September 2021. The victim transferred 1 million euros, and later transferred another 100,000 euros after being promised a larger loan that never materialized. George Simion, Georgescu's political ally, condemned the police action.
