Juridical situation >>> Status >>> THE ALBA IULIA COURT OF APPEAL REJECTED THE APPEAL FORMULATED BY THE SIBIU PROSECUTOR’S OFFICE
Monday, 14th of March 2011, The Alba Iulia Court of Appeal rejected the appeal formulated by the Sibiu Prosecutor’s Office against the decision of acquittal of Gregorian Bivolaru.
We remind you that on the 23rd of April 2010, the Sibiu Court ruled the acquittal of Gregorian Bivolaru in the 405/85/2005 file. The Prosecutor’s Office immediately formulated an appeal, contesting the Court’s decision. Today, after almost one year, the decision of the Alba Iulia Court of Appeal certifies the fact that the acquittal of Gregorian Bivolaru is correct and legal and therefore remains valid. The decision of the Alba Iulia Court of Appeal once again certifies the innocence of Gregorian Bivolaru and it is a new step forward towards justice and at least a moral reparation of the injustices and abuses to which Gregorian Bivolaru and the yoga movement in Romania have been subjected to by the Romanian authorities for years. Gregorian Bivolaru is currently in Sweden, where he was granted political asylum in 2005 by the Swedish Supreme Court of Justice.
