The arrest of the 93-year-old woman, today, had raised a storm of reactions in 2019
The 93-year-old woman from Thessaloniki was vindicated which was accused that he was selling trinkets illegally in a street market. The Three-member Misdemeanor Court of Thessaloniki, where she was referred to stand trial, acquitted her of practicing outdoor trade without the required permit.
Seated in a wheelchair, the 93-year-old stated that she was not engaged in any commercial activity. “I used to give away the trinkets. I had 4-5 pieces left and went to sell them. I didn’t know he needed permission for that,” she noted in her apology.
The case became known in April 2019, causing reactions, as, in addition to her arrest, she was also fined by the competent DOU, amounting to 2600 euros.
In fact, the then President of the Republic had intervened in the matter with his statement Prokopis Pavlopoulos, calling on the Authorities to behave with humanity and solidarity. The fine had been canceled by decision of the head of the Independent Public Revenue Authority Giorgos Pitsilis.
