The CSM's judges' section sanctioned judges Ion Fundătureanu and Andrei Stancu for increasing a suspended sentence to imprisonment in Daniel Chițoiu's case. The judges faced disciplinary actions for using the behavior of Chițoiu's lawyers as a reason to aggravate the sentence. The section emphasized that a defendant's situation cannot be worsened due to their lawyer's conduct. The decision is not final and can be appealed to the High Court. Chițoiu was involved in a fatal car accident in 2019, leading to his conviction.
