5. George Balan's resolution to deny the penal complaint
George Balan denies the complaint of Madalina Dumitru regarding the violent and abusive house search she underwent, and against the declaration taken by force. Balan considers all actions were legal, the forceful breaking into was done in order to discover a flagrante delicto , Madalina Dumitru was heard as a witness therefore the legal assistance was not compulsory, moreover she had not requested it. In addition, according to Balan, no one raised objections during the search and when the search report was issued [we recall the searched was performed by armed and masked men], and Madalina Dumitru raised no objection when signing the declaration on 18 March 2004 (the one she contests).

One day after the political order at the Social Democratic Party (PSD) meeting held on 27 March, Mr. Bivolaru was restrained at the border.
On the 28 th of March, following some ambiguous news about an interdiction to leave the country, Mr. Gregorian Bivolaru went to Nadlac border point to check whether he was confined to the border or not.
On March 18 2004, during a violent house search, Madalina Dumitru was filmed, against her will, barely dressed, treated brutally, threatened, the gun pointed to her head by masked men.
The lawyers of Gregorian Bivolaru filed in September 2004 an application to the European Court for Human Rights.
On 4 October 2004 the lawyers of Gregorian Bivolaru request the reassignment of the case to a court outside Bucharest.
Because of the lack of evidence the Bucharest Tribunal issued on 15 April 2005 a new arrest warrant against Gregorian Bivolaru for the crime of trafficking persons.
