Liviu Dragnea in court, asks judges for the retrial of his case. Verdict delayed on January 21
Former PSD chairman Liviu Dragnea, imprisoned for corruption at Rahova Penitentiary since May 2019, has been brought under escort to the High Court of Cassation and Justice on Tuesday for an extraordinary appeal through which he is trying to obtain a retrial of his fictitious hiring file in which he had been sentenced to three years and a half in prison.
“I am completely innocent, I have been under bars for 8 months,” Dragnea told magistrates.
The Supreme Court had overruled the appeal in this file in December and thus Dragnea remained in jail.
