THE WITNESSES WHO COULD NOT COME: 40,000 + 40,000

Two recorded testimonies awaited the court. They were not just any witnesses: they were the two people who could explain, from the inside, how the method worked.

Rasim Metin, formal holder of the company Daxserv, left his statement recorded for the trial as he could not absent himself from his work in Germany (A.39.1; transcribed in full in this portal, in his original Romanian and in Spanish). His account, in the first person: the company in his name "was set up for me by Fernando, with its registered office at his house"; he never managed it — "Fernando and Candy used it"; he withdrew money twice and handed 40,000 euros to Fernando and 40,000 to Candy, with Apolozan as witness to the first handover; and they invoiced with his company "without my consent and without my knowledge".

Ionut Matoiu, who did testify in the proceedings, later left recorded the piece no one asked him in the courtroom (A.39.2): that in the spring of 2014 Metin told him personally about the money handovers to Fernando and Candy. Independent corroboration, with a date.

Read what those testimonies describe: a company set up in the name of a foreigner, de facto managed by the complainants, invoicing without its holder's consent, with money leaving in cash towards Carcedo and Iriarte. It is — point by point — the same mechanism this Story documented with International Technology Corp Soft. The method had a second case, told by its own victim. The court that convicted Apolozan over that method supposedly applied by him… had at its disposal the other man to whom it was applied.

The key factRecorded testimony of Metin (A.39.1, transcribed): company in his name set up by Carcedo, with its office at his house, managed by Carcedo and Iriarte, invoicing without consent; handovers of €40,000 to each. Corroboration by Matoiu (A.39.2): Metin told him in spring 2014.
The uncomfortable questionIf the same corporate mould had a second victim willing to tell it, why does his account appear assessed in no resolution of the case?
The ruleThe court must assess the available exculpatory evidence and give reasons for discarding it (art. 24.2 of the Constitution; art. 120.3 of the Constitution); the right to question defence witnesses under the same conditions is an express safeguard (art. 6.3.d, ECHR).
