Băsescu, despre cazul lui Georgescu: Nici pe vremea lui Kovesi nu se făceau arestări atât de întârziate
Former President Traian Băsescu criticizes the handling of Călin Georgescu's case, questioning the delay in arrests and the public presentation of the investigation. He notes that such delays were not seen even during Laura Codruța Kovesi's tenure at DIICOT. Băsescu describes the investigation as a 'spectacle' and highlights contradictions in the current practices compared to past criticisms of Kovesi's methods. He labels Georgescu a 'charlatan' and expresses skepticism about the integrity of the ongoing investigation, while asserting that there are indeed facts to be examined. Băsescu dismisses the idea that Georgescu's political support could transfer to George Simion, stating that Georgescu has his own distinct electorate.
