Imprisoned Football Agent Victor Becali To Be Released On Parole

The magistrates rejected as unfounded an appeal made by National Anticorruption Directorate prosecutors against the decision of Bucharest Sector 4 to order the early release of the former agent.
Victor Becali was serving a five year and eight months prison sentence he received for bribing a judge to overturn another sentence he received in a case regarding multiple football transfers during the late 90’s and early 2000’s, widely known as the “Transfers Case” due to including multiple officials and owners of Romanian football teams.
His brother Ioan Becali, co-owner of their football agency, was also sentenced to three years in prison in the case. The agency was one of the most influential in Romanian football before the case was launched.
Judge Geanina Terceanu was sentenced to seven years in prison for taking bribes in the case.
