Romanian ex-presidential candidate Georgescu faces 30-day preventive arrest in fraud case

Călin Georgescu, a former Romanian presidential candidate, is in court today for a possible 30-day preventive arrest after DIICOT detained him overnight in a new case alleging he defrauded a businessman of over €1 million. The outcome is uncertain; judges may impose the requested arrest or a lighter measure. This is a notable legal development for a high-profile political figure, though it is not directly market-relevant.
