BRD executives Adrian Martiş and Andrei Nanu were arrested for 29 days, along with two other people, and the other nine defendants, including Ioan Crestin and Marius Locic , will be not detained.

This is the decision of the Magistrates Court of appeal in bank fraud case of 85 million euros.

With the four mandates approved by judges, the number of people arrested in the case of fraudulent banks reached 11.

The other nine, including Ioan Crestin and Marius Locic, will not be detained and are not allowed to leave the country during the investigations.

Businessman Marius Locic argued, today, at the exit from the Court of Appeal, that DIICOT and DNA received false information.

"I'm thinking to go into politics. I want to defend all people who are disadvantaged and who do not have a media exposure. I want to tell you that there are many abuses.

"Unfortunately, Directorate for Investigating Organised Crime and Terrorism (DIICOT) and National Anticorruption Directorate( DNA) are influenced by certain groups in Information Romanian Service(SRI), which, through ignorance or bad faith, giving false information," said Marius Locic.

DIICOT actions aimed at a coordinated group of influential people in business in the capital, which would have taken illegal loans from two banks for 35 companies with the support of seven directors of banks, damage of 85 million euros.
