Abuses persecutions and threats >>> Life threats

Gregorian Bivolaru has been victim of two serious attempts on his life (in 1994 and 1995), and in 2003 he still continued to receive letter of threats.

• In August 1994 a gang of hooligans broke into his room at Admiral Villa in Costinesti, beat him savagely and destroyed everything in the room. He was saved by some of the yoga students. Although the eyewitnesses identified the aggressors, the police made no investigation, since the aggressors were connected with some local VIP's. - Eye-witness declaration regarding the assault from Costinesti, Aug. 1994 (coming soon)

• In February 1995 his apartment was destroyed by a strong explosion followed by a fire. The explosion affected as well the other apartments from his block, and Mr. Bivolaru would have been definitely killed if he had been home at that time. The investigations of the fire brigade and of independent experts proved the explosion was caused by a criminal hand, not by the negligence of Mr. Bivolaru, as the police rushed to state. Again, no investigation was made.
