Dima released, Carstea still in custody - unbelievable

Dima released, Carstea still in custody - unbelievable
I just woke up to the news that Vasile Dima has been released...and Florentina Carstea is still in custody. I do not understand this, I cannot accept it - it is a travesty of justice and a joke to the whole system of responsibility. While Florentina did...
