Iranian officials are seeking answers from Romanian authorities after former Iranian judge Gholamreza Mansouri, who was facing corruption charges in Iran, fell out of an upper window Friday at the Duke Hotel in Bucharest, Romania.
Mansouri, a former member of Iran’s Supreme Court, was facing extradition to Iran on charges that he allegedly took about 500,000 euros in bribes. He had been staying at the Duke Hotel for 10 days before his death. According to Romanian media, Mansouri was on his way back to his room after paying his hotel bill at the front desk. Romanian police are currently reviewing camera footage.
