Marian Munteanu
Marian Munteanu (born 19 June 1962) is a former leader of the anti-government protests that took place in 1990 in Romania and were ended violently by the intervention of the miners (the Mineriad).
Munteanu was the leader of the Students' League, which was one of organizers of the protests against Ion Iliescu's rule. On June 14, 1990, he was severely beaten. A miner was later imprisoned for attempted murder following witnesses' declarations that he had tried to kill Munteanu using an axe.[1][2]
He was arrested and detained at Jilava between June 18 and August 2, 1990.
As of 2011, he was teaching ethnology, anthropology and folklore at the University of Bucharest.[2]
