Controversy
In December 2011 Dăncuță was arrested by the DIICOT, being accused of initiating and forming an organized criminal group.[7][8][9][10] The main accusation was that the group was skimming credit cards in Italy, Sweden, Slovenia and Netherlands.[7][8][9][10] On 8 February 2012, the Bucharest Court of Appeal admitted Dăncuță's request for provisional release under judicial control, but only six days later he was arrested again by DIICOT for violating the conditions of his judicial control by going to see the boxing match between Ronald Gavril and Andrejs Loginovs.[10] In 2014 he was convicted by a trial from Bucharest to 3 years and 6 months in prison.[6] For similar crimes he was convicted in Italy (2001), Great Britain (2005, 2007) and Germany (2008).[11][12][13]
