Moreover, his name would also appear in a file instrumented by DIICOT.
Impact in Gorj states that Alexandru was also known for his talent as a painter and tattoo artist. He graduated from the Faculty of Arts and Design at the Western University in Timișoara, and in recent years he allegedly suffered from depression, after the divorce from his wife.
