The Prosecutor’s Office mentioned that the request is based on constitutional and legal provisions. In a first reaction, former Prime Minister Petre Roman said he is indignant at this request and dismissed any involvement in the revolution file. Petre Roman said that, in fact, he was one of the targets of the bullets at that time. The „1989 Revolution” file is one of the longest investigations in Romanian law practice. Prosecutors had to make clear the circumstances in which hundreds of people were killed and thousands were wounded.
