He reassured Singapore Foreign Minister George Yeo of Romania’s commitment to observe legal procedures fully and to enforce the law in the case of former diplomat Silviu Ionescu.
While driving an embassy car, Dr Ionescu allegedly hit three people last December.
Singapore’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) said yesterday that Mr Baconschi expressed these sentiments in reply to Mr Yeo’s two letters.
