The Buiucani Court accepted the prosecutors’ request to extend the detention on remand for businessman Veaceslav Platon for another 30 days, IPN reports.
Also, the court rejected lawyers’ request to change the remand detention form of the businessman, dismissing it as groundless. Thus, Veaceslav Platon remains in penitentiary.
