Et klart bevis på arrestationer i Rumænien tilvejebringes af erklæringen fra præsident Băsescu i Strasbourg fem timer før, Constantin Nicolescu blev arresteret. Jeg citerer: "Et vigtigt medlem af oppositionen er blevet arresteret", citat slut, selv om sidstnævnte endnu ikke havde nået retten.
Clear proof that arrests are being made in Romania by political order is provided by the statement made by President Băsescu in Strasbourg five hours prior to the arrest of Constantin Nicolescu, and I quote: 'An important member of the Opposition has been arrested', end of quote, even though the latter had not yet reached the court.
