Romania jailed Dracula Ionescu for 29 days! 3 Cheeers for Mr George Yeo & GMS

[RonRon]

BUCHAREST - A ROMANIAN court jailed for 29 days on Saturday a diplomat allegedly involved in a hit-and-run crash in Singapore in December that killed a Malaysian, media reported.

Silviu Ionescu, a former charge d'affaires in Singapore, was detained for questioning on Friday and the court later ordered him to be arrested for 29 days pending his trial.

Ionescu's lawyer filed an appeal to the court's decision, news agency Mediafax reported. Ionescu is alleged to have hit three pedestrians in two incidents in December while driving a car belonging to the Romanian mission.

One of the victims, a 30-year-old Malaysian national, suffered brain damage and died on Christmas Day, while the two others suffered injuries. Ionescu has publicly denied he was the driver, claiming the car was stolen.

Last month Singapore issued an arrest warrant after a coroner's court ruled that Ionescu was driving the car involved in the accident. Singapore's foreign ministry said the Romanian government had the moral obligation to persuade Ionescu to return to face the charges. There is no extradition treaty between the two countries.

'The Romanian government must in its own interests ensure that justice was served and seen to be served,' a spokesman said in a statement. 'Otherwise, there would inevitably be consequences for bilateral relations.' -- AFP

This has nothing to do with GY or GMS. It's just Romanian conscience.

The Power of sharing Messages must not be underestimated. Going down to the streets to share the messages on the ground is even more important than just merely asking people to buy your newspaper. If one could compress key issues into short and effective messages, it could just work wonders in communication and rapport building Mr Goh Meng Seng

If U are GMS/ related, U are dumb, if U are not, this is a piece of opinion written with the intent of misleading, not to mention copyright infringement of using GMS's quotes and impersonation with the use of an inappropriate 'avatar photo'.

Shame on U.

Anyway, 'Singapore's use of Article 39.2 is premature, wrong, offensive and harming our 'diplomatic relations'

They are appealing....he has not gone to jail...this will take a few months...then he will apply to go to US for treatment of his diabetes....the Romanian will change into a bat...and roost with his kind in the States.

This glaring proof is that, the MIWs are good only in screwing SINGAPOREANS....:o

The report is misleading. Where on earth did the Romanian Authority say that Silviu Ionescu has been jailed for 29 days? He is not even charged in Court yet. In fact, I am rather incline to believe the report by ZAOBAO, reporting that the Romanian Prosecutor has successfully obtained the Court order for for him to be remanded for up to 29 days, in order to conduct its investigations of his alleged criminal offences committed in SG.

After deducting holidays, waiting time, questioning time etc, the Govt owes Ionescu 30 days. Now he can spend them for holidays

 

[ahleebabasingaporethief]

Our newspapers all trying to appease the public for the SCUMS.

To me, this 29 days is a big LOMANIAN WAYANG for our news media. How can arrest when no charge?

It's WAYANG vs WAYANG. End of the day guess who is the loser?
