New details have emerged in the Adrian Kreiner case, with the murdered businessman's daughter alleging that his partner, Adriana Viliginschi, administered sedative medication to her for approximately three months. These claims were made in court during proceedings at the Alba Iulia Court of Appeal.
The victim's daughter testified that Viliginschi repeatedly offered her prescription-free sedatives. She stated these alleged actions occurred within the context of strained family relations following events related to the case. The court session took place in a small room, creating a tense atmosphere with audible debates due to the limited space.
The case centers on the murder of businessman Adrian Kreiner in his villa. Forensic evidence and the timeline of events on the night of the murder are under examination. The defense has previously cited forensic expert conclusions suggesting that mechanical asphyxiation requires at least five minutes for cerebral hypoxia to develop. They correlate this with the short timeframe between the 112 emergency call and the defendants' departure from the scene.
According to case data, the defendants entered the residence around 2:36 AM, and the victim's daughter made the emergency call at 2:58 AM. Investigators state the defendants left the property two minutes later. Adriana Viliginschi was not present at this hearing, as she is listed as a victim in this case but is involved in separate legal proceedings in Sibiu. The trial continues, with the next court date scheduled for July 2, 2026.
