    Don’t know about the laws in Romania, but the prison conditions are not pleasant.

    The physical environment of these [Romanian prison] facilities is marked by poor cell conditions, overcrowding, poor hygiene and sanitation, and inadequate food and health care.

    The continuing use of restraints such as handcuffs and leg irons for very long periods of time as a form of punishment is a violation of international standards for the treatment of prisoners. The report describes abuse by guards and corruption rife in Romanian prisons.

      There’s irony in the fact that Tate went to Romania specifically to evade international standards and laws.
