Victor Sandu, former head of the Romanian Waters, escapes punishment for a bribery case due to the statute of limitations. The trial, ongoing since 2020, has faced numerous delays, with no verdict reached. The case involves a million-euro bribe linked to hydrotechnical works in Bihor, with six defendants. Despite the expiration of the statute of limitations for the alleged crimes, the court must still decide on the confiscation of assets worth nearly 5 million lei. The next hearing is scheduled for January 2027, marking over six years since the indictment.
