Marian Munteanu (born 19 June 1962, in Grădiștea, Comana, Giurgiu, Socialist Republic of Romania) is a former leader of the anti-government protests that took place in 1990 in Romania against the National Salvation Front (FSN). The anti-government protests were ended violently by the intervention of the miners from Jiu Valley (known as the first Mineriad). During the early 1990s, he was also the leader of the far-right political organization "Mișcarea pentru România" (The Movement for Romania). At the same time, Munteanu was the leader of the Students' League, which was one of organizers of the protests against Ion Iliescu's first rule in post-1989 Romania. On 14 June 1990, he was severely beaten. A miner was later imprisoned for attempted murder following witnesses' declarations that he had tried to kill Munteanu with an axe. He was arrested and detained at Jilava Prison between June 18 and August 2, 1990. More information...
