Prince Paul of Romania remains in custody in Malta

Prince Paul remains in custody until the final judgement on his request for surrender to Romania scheduled for 17 June.
Malta's Constitutional Court rejected a new request for his release on Wednesday. Last month, a Maltese court refused to allow him to return to Romania.
The Romanian authorities considered at the time that European Union law on the European Arrest Warrant had not been properly applied and referred the case to the Court of Justice of the European Union for a ruling.
The first deadline in this case is at the end of June.
In 2020, the High Court of Cassation and Justice definitively sentenced Paul of Romania to three years and four months in prison with execution in the case of the illegal retrocession of the royal farm of Baneasa.
