Romanian ex diplomat accused of hit-and-run killing in Singapore claims he was set up

By The Associated Press (CP) – 32 minutes ago

BUCHAREST, Romania — A former Romanian diplomat went on trial Tuesday in Bucharest for allegedly killing a man in a hit-and-run accident in Singapore, and testified that he had been set up by authorities in the Asian country.

Silviu Ionescu, a former embassy attache in Singapore, pleaded not guilty to murder and other charges including fleeing the scene of a crime.

He is accused of hitting two pedestrians with his car in the early hours of Dec. 15, and then hitting and injuring a third person while driving away. One of the first two injured died 10 days later.

Ionescu returned to Romania immediately after the accident, citing diplomatic immunity, and claimed he had not been driving the embassy vehicle because it had earlier been stolen.

As his trial opened in the Romanian capital on Tuesday, Ionescu claimed this was the second time Singapore's authorities had tried to connect him with a hit-and-run accident. Ionescu said the first case was dropped after witnesses confirmed he had been at a diplomatic reception at the time of the alleged incident.

Ionescu has been detained in Romania over the charges stemming from the December accident, and has requested bail.

Singapore's Ambassador to Brussels Anil Kumar Nayal was in court Tuesday, where a new hearing was set for Oct. 6.

Nayal has said Singapore's relations with Romania were threatened by the incident, which caused outrage in the tiny Asian country.

After all these recent incidents (occurred after this Romanian embassy attacheès case)...disallowed Vincent Cheng to speak, ban Martyn See's Youtube showing of Dr. Lim Hock Siew's speech in Nov 2009 and the latest Alan Shadrake's arrest for writing a book (not to forget the selective justice on Dr. Chee Soon Juan and parties), I begin to believe his accusation that he was set up by the Singapore govt.

Dr. Silviu Ionescu should follow Alan Shadrakeès act by writing a book of all that he knows about Singapore's dark secret (if any), like:

1. Its dealings (GIC and Temasek) with the drug lord in Burma.

2. How the rich and white escape the gallows for drug offences.

3. Secret weapon deals.

4. Any form of covered-up corruption in the political "famiLEE"...like porjects
and losses and the use of "women" in govt. business deals.

5. How the Sands casinos get their finance from DBS in such a speedy
manner.

etc.

I think you should not bring in your political preference and judgement onto this Ionescu issue when there are eye witnesses who saw what happened. Those political issues are completely unrelated.

What "eye witnesses"? Did they actually saw Silviu Ionescu and even talk to him while at the accident scene?

What they saw was the embassy car and perhaps someone look like Inosescu.

Even the Singapore police and govt dare not to take immediate action and allowed him to leave Singapore.

Why then Silviu Inosescu bring out the "political aspect" ...it's not me.
All I say is that the recent political developments couple with Dr. Chee Soon Juan selective justice on him and his parites prove the basis of Dr Silviu Inosescu's assertion. Look at most of the political detainee (including lawyer Tay Lain Hoong who wrote that he saw strong muscular men surrounding him while at the political rally).

The what about frame-up of Tan Howe Piow...when he went into the house, the doors were immediately locked and then tables and chris were turned, and then police rush in to arrest him. The union chief who went against Tan was later absconded from Singapore for cheating the union money! Wow, in that incident there should also have eye witnesses that Tan Howe Piow created a riot.

Can we still believe the PAP or any politicians for that matter....look at the CIA!

Why don't we let him bring out all the "dark secret" and I am sure as a diplomat he knows more than anyone of us.

This Ionescu is a bloody coward! He caused the accident which resulted killing the live of an innocent and now trying to find excuses for his actions and trying to run away from responsibility? Anyone who think that he is a hero should check their brains.

 

[cooleo]

If he knocked down Old Man and Ass Loong, he would have been praised for centuries. But alas!

I say Silviu Ionescu is gulity of what he is being accused of
