Senatorul Ninel Peia, avertisment privind justiția din România: „Dreptatea nu se face cu prețul dezbinării unei națiuni”
Senator Ninel Peia emphasized the importance of individual freedoms and the rule of law during a discussion on preventive detention. He argued that a strong state respects citizens' rights rather than restricting them. Peia highlighted the presumption of innocence and the need for authorities to justify any limitations on freedom. He also pointed out that preventive measures should be carefully considered, advocating for alternatives to detention. Peia's comments were partly in response to the case of Călin Georgescu, stressing that decisions affecting citizens must be made with caution and respect for their rights.
