Timișoara mayor Dominic Fritz will remain in office but have his salary reduced by 10% for six months following a final court ruling that found him in an administrative conflict of interest, Timiș prefect Paul Finta announced on Tuesday, August 4. In June, Romania's High Court of Cassation and Justice upheld a Timișoara Court of Appeal ruling that found Dominic Fritz in an administrative conflict of interest. “I signed the order applying the disciplinary sanction of reducing the allowance by 10% for a period of six months to Dominic Fritz, the mayor of Timișoara," Paul Finta said at a press conference, according to News.ro. Fritz then accused PSD of conducting a campaign against him and the mandate he received from Timișoara voters. Dominic Fritz also argued that a PSD prefect in Timiș County had imposed the same sanction - a reduction in salary - on the PSD mayor of Recaș in 2023 after the latter was found in a conflict of interest.
