George Becali’s opulent palace in Romania has โขbeen targeted by vandals for a second time in as many weeks, this time with messages โคincluding a birthday greeting to tennis star Simona Halep. The incidents raise questions โขabout the perpetrator’s motivesโ and security around the โcontroversial businessman’s property.
The latestโข act of vandalism follows a similar incident last weekend, where graffiti covered the palace fence.Authorities suspect the same individual isโค responsible for both occurrences,โ according to Romanian sports outlet Digisport. While theโ messages appear disparate – โคranging from religious declarations like “God is love” to the September 27 birthday wish for Halep – the โคrepeated targeting of Becali’s residence is prompting scrutiny.
Police have identified and fined the vandal 6,000 lei (approximatelyโ $1,300 USD), but Becali dismissed the incidents withโ a curt statement. “That man is sick, โI have nothing to do,” the owner of football club FCSB reportedly said, seemingly unconcerned by the repeated defacement of his property.
The palace has previously been a subject ofโ public fascination and controversy, often linked to Becali’s high-profile legal battles and flamboyant lifestyle. This latestโ episode โadds another layer to the ongoing narrative surrounding the businessman and his estate.
