According to the account of the young woman’s mother, published online, the incident would have taken place during the event. Adrian Pleșca, aged 64, would have persistently followed the teenager, and at one point he would have tried to forcefully kiss her.
“After persistently staring at her all evening, he came to her table, leaned over her from behind and tried to forcefully kiss her and smoke her e-cigarette. She and her friends asked him to leave, but he did so only after insistence — to go to another young girl, whom he also kissed on the cheek, also without her consent.” it shows in the post.
According to the same source, the young woman would have warned the artist that she would call the police if he did not withdraw, and his reaction would have been ironic. The incident would have been partially filmed, and a video fragment is already circulating on Facebook, which you can find below.

The young woman’s mother claims that she talked to the organizer of the open mic night, who allegedly told her that the artist had other similar behaviors.
“When he went to the organizer, he said that Pleșca “does something like this” and that he will do everything he can so that Pleșca no longer appears in the landscape, but that the location is not his and, therefore, he does not have much leverage.” it is also shown in the public message.
The woman states that she decided to make the case public in order to draw attention to a behavior she considers unacceptable: “I’m writing this because I don’t want other girls to go through the same thing,” relayed this, asking if other people had similar experiences with the artist.
