Dozens of young women were forced to take an HIV test after discovering during a funeral that the deceased man had been suffering from Aids which led to angry scenes. Apparently, the local Lothario had many ex-lovers.Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), a disease caused by a virus called Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) has become a global concern.
AIDS is the only disease specifically mentioned in the Romanian criminal law, which states that the transmission of the virus by a person who already knows he or she is infected can be punishable with a jail term of between five and fifteen years.
However, the law specifies that there is no need to inform a physical partner of the infection, but there is an obligation to practice safe sex.
According to UK’s Daily Mail, although Daniel Decu was registered having AIDS, his condition was only made known to the public after an autopsy was carried out and a coroner’s report was published.
Earlier, a local doctor in the town of Segarcea, south-eastern Romania’s Dolj County tried to warn people that Decu was suffering from the deadly disease, but was threatened with a lawsuit by the man’s mother.
On a similar note, Dr. Cornel Stanciu, Decu’s family physician revealed that he knew Daniel Decu was an HIV positive and that he had a relationship with his daughter. Stanciu claimed he wanted to tell the public about Decu’s condition. However, he was likewise threatened by his mother.
“I knew he had a lot of female friends, but there was nothing I could do about it,” the doctor said.
Nicolae Popa, the mayor of Segarcea said: ‘The boy’s mother is to blame for the terrible situation that we now find ourselves in.”
Among the many women of Decu, two of them have been confirmed as HIV-positive.
His mother and family are now being investigated as well as others who knew about Decu’s condition.
Decu’s ex-lovers are now awaiting the HIV test results with fear, prosecutors said.
