ANP announced that superiors will investigate the circumstances in which the teacher married Bogdan Dumitrescu, nicknamed “The Crocodile”, a prominent member of a notorious Bucharest criminal organization.

The teacher counseled Dumitrescu on educational problems while he was incarcerated at Rahova, ANP sources told MEDIAFAX.

Agency representatives also specified that relationships between penitentiary employees and inmates are forbidden, according to its deontological code.

The case is complicated however by the fact that the marriage took place at another penitentiary, Jilava, where the mobster had been transferred in the meantime.

A spokesperson for the Jilava Penitentiary told MEDIAFAX that the marriage was not unusual, as inmates have the right to marry, and the woman was not employed by the prison at the time of marriage.

Bogdan Dumitrache was sentenced in June 2018 to seven years and six months in prison for being part of an organized crime group.
