The file of the accident caused last week by Ion Gigel, called “Sentiment”, in Brăila, takes a new turn.

The Prosecutor's Office attached to the Brăila Court took over the file from the Prosecutor's Office attached to the Brăila Court, changing the legal classification from culpable bodily injury to attempted murder.

Basically, “Feeling” now faces a prison sentence, with prosecutors determining that the driver's actions went beyond the scope of culpability, charging him with attempted murder.

Prosecutors from the Prosecutor's Office attached to the Brăila Court claim that “Sentiment” acted with indirect intent and considering the criminal record for driving without a license, the fact that he had the right to drive suspended and that he was concerned about the live broadcast on TikTok, the investigators concluded that he foresaw and consciously accepted the risk of causing death or extremely serious bodily harm.

It is for the first time, in Brăila, that a driver involved in a road accident resulting in the serious injury of some people is accused of attempted murder, the prosecutors appreciating that the individual accepted the real possibility of turning the car into a weapon and killing, writes debraila.ro..
