Doi judecători de la Curtea de Apel Pitești, trimiși la judecata CSM după condamnarea lui Daniel Chițoiu. Inspecția Judiciară îi acuză de „rea-credință”
Two judges from the Pitești Court of Appeal are facing disciplinary proceedings for their role in increasing the sentence of former Deputy Prime Minister Daniel Chițoiu. The Judicial Inspection accuses them of considering the defense conduct in determining the sentence. The case revolves around Chițoiu's conviction for culpable homicide following a fatal car accident in December 2019. The judges initially imposed a three-year suspended sentence, which was later increased to four years in prison. The Judicial Inspection argues that the judges acted in bad faith by penalizing legal defense actions, which could set a concerning precedent for the exercise of legal rights.
