Dead man walking: Court rejects Romanian's claim he's alive

[Sleeves]

This baffles me. With this being the final ruling he has no chance of ever being legally alive. Can he own a home, a car? Can he ever work or purchase insurance? Can he even get a bank account because of this?

It's like he's been made to forever live without any rights or luxuries in life. I'd be damn near furious after this and doing my best to high tail it to another country.

[Mr. Someguy]

Dead people can't get passports.

Vaslui is the Romanian equivalent of Florida with the weird news it brings.
Glad to see Vaslui man make it internationally.

How does this go through all the levels with no one being like "ok you're deffo not dead buddy" at all. I'm just so confused. Especially since he was declared dead under the circumstance that he just hadn't been seen in a really long time which, granted, is fine in theory, but given that there is a possibility he may just show up one day there ought to be some sort of clause that prevents this kinda thing.

He could be seen as an imposter or so.

I mean, he was in possession of expired documents which lead to his deportation from Turkey. It would be odd for someone else to be deported to Romania in his stead. It was about 25 years, so I'm not sure if family would recognize him, but I wager they'd be able to say whether or not it was even possible.

Welcome to East European bureaucracy. In some sort of retarded spree to see who will be the most stupid (and get eu good boi points), silly things like these are allowed to happen, because, unless you're a criminal who bribes, or a foreign investor(tm) you have to acquire 20 tons of paperwork to get anything done, and in this case there is no such paperwork
