The court rejected the defendant's appeal as unfounded, upholding the lower court's order of 3 August 2004 maintaining the defendant's pretrial detention, and ordered the defendant to pay judicial costs (800,000 lei, with 200,000 lei advanced from the Justice Ministry's fund for the official defense lawyer). The defendant had challenged the appellate court's decision to keep him in custody pending appeal of his conviction, arguing the measure should be revoked and he should be tried while released. The court held that the detention measure had been lawfully imposed and extended, and that the grounds justifying it remained unchanged under Articles 300² and 160h of the Romanian Code of Criminal Procedure, given the trial court had convicted the defendant.

Asupra recursului de față;

În baza lucrărilor din dosar, constată următoarele:

Prin încheierea din 3 august 2004, pronunțată de Curtea de Apel Galați, s-a dispus amânarea cauzei având ca obiect judecarea apelurilor declarate de inculpații P.G.M., P.E. și S.P.I. împotriva sentinței penale nr. 191 din 21 mai 2004, pronunțată de Tribunalul Vrancea.

Potrivit dispozițiilor art. 3002 C. proc. pen., raportat la art. 160h C. proc. pen., a menținut măsura arestării preventive a inculpaților P.E. și S.P.I.

S-a reținut că nu au dispărut temeiurile care au determinat arestarea preventivă.

Împotriva acestei încheieri a declarat recurs inculpatul P.E. care a solicitat revocarea măsurii și judecarea în stare de libertate.

Recursul este nefondat.

Măsura arestării preventive a fost dispusă și prelungită legal, justificat instanța de fond dispunând condamnarea acestuia.

La rândul său, instanța de apel a menținut măsura arestării preventive a inculpatului, făcând aplicarea dispozițiilor art. 160h C. proc. pen., temeiurile care au justificat această măsură rămânând neschimbate.

În consecință, recursul declarat împotriva acestei încheieri este nefondat și va fi respins, iar inculpatul va fi obligat la cheltuieli judiciare către stat.

PENTRU ACESTE MOTIVE

ÎN NUMELE LEGII

D E C I D E

Respinge, ca nefondat, recursul declarat de inculpatul P.E. împotriva încheierii din 3 august 2004, pronunțată de Curtea de Apel Galați, în dosar nr. 1123/2004.

Obligă pe recurentul inculpat la plata sumei de 800.000 lei cheltuieli judiciare către stat, din care suma de 200.000 lei, reprezentând onorariul de avocat pentru apărarea din oficiu, se va avansa din fondul Ministerului Justiției.

Definitivă.

Pronunțată în ședință publică, azi 12 august 2004.
