Senatorul Paul Pintea, trimis în judecată la Înalta Curte

Independent senator Paul Pintea has been indicted for driving without a license, having a prior conviction for a similar offense. The incident occurred on November 7, 2025, in Zalău, where he failed to stop for police. The case has been forwarded to the High Court of Cassation and Justice due to his status as a senator. This new trial is separate from previous convictions, including a suspended sentence of one year and five months. Pintea has also faced scrutiny over discrepancies in his educational background listed in his official CV.
