PODRIJETLO

Constantin Vișinescu was born in 1920 in Constanţa. Between 1930-1937, he attended the courses of the "Gheorghe Lazăr" College in Bucharest, and in 1938 he was admitted to two faculties: Law, Letters and Philosophy. At the end of 1940 he was sent to the eastern front against the USSR, where he took part in the battles for the liberation of Bessarabia. In 1943 he was wounded and declared a war invalid. He ignored this situation and continued to the front. In 1944 he was taken prisoner and sent to the Wosnesensk camp on the Bug, from where, together with three other comrades, he escaped and arrived in the country where he was arrested by the Soviet occupation troops, for desertion. However, the military prosecutor's office found that there was no legal basis for his prosecution and he was released. As a trainee lawyer, he worked in the office of Istrate Micescu and then in the office of Ion Valjan. In 1951, being a defense lawyer in the trial of the Zionists in Bucharest, he was arrested by the Security of the regime. After a long investigation, he was sent to the labor camp at the Danube-Black Sea Canal, from where he was released in 1954. After his release, he resumed his legal activity and in 1972 received the "Das Verdist Kreuz" decoration for legal merits from the Federal Republic of Germany. In 1990, he founded the Romanian-Israel Friendship Cultural Association. In 1996, the Presidency of Romania awarded him the "Commemorative Cross of the Second World War" for military services brought to the Romanian state.
