SURSE: DIICOT cere prelungirea arestului preventiv pentru Călin Georgescu, în baza noului dosar. Fostul candidat la prezidențiale este acuzat că ar fi încercat să distrugă microfoanele plantate de procurori

Prosecutors from DIICOT are requesting that former presidential candidate Călin Georgescu remains in preventive detention due to new alleged offenses committed while under judicial control. On September 26, 2026, he reportedly sought assistance to identify hidden surveillance devices in his home, raising suspicions of further illegal activities. The prosecutors argue that this behavior justifies extending his detention, as he allegedly violated the law despite being under less strict supervision. Georgescu faces charges related to illegal operations with devices and attempted data alteration, linked to events following a police raid on his residence. He was initially arrested on September 29, 2026, and later placed under house arrest, a decision contested by prosecutors. The new allegations are seen as a reason to maintain his preventive arrest, while he retains the presumption of innocence in all cases.
