Debates will be resumed on June 18.
 
According to final election results, Becali, owner of Steaua Bucharest football club, won a seat in the European Parliament in Sunday’s elections.
 
In April, Becali was charged with kidnapping after he and his bodyguards decided to take justice in their own hands and sequestered three men who allegedly stole his car.
Becali was arrested and later released under judicial control on a pledge not to leave the country.
