Statement of the former Minister of Justice and director of the office of the president of SYRIZA
The criminal arsenal for wiretapping exists, the question is whether it will be applied, he says in his statement, o Mr. Michalis Kalogirouformer Minister of Justice and director of the office of the president of SYRIZA, Alexis Tsipras.
In particular, in his statement, Mr. Kalogirou mentions that “because the ND government is preparing to take an initiative on the issue of wiretapping and its executives are pretending to be sensitive to alleged loopholes and “misdemeanors” in the criminal repression after the changes in the KP, let them know that the criminal arsenal already exists to ban malware in our country. Those who have been involved in this parastatal of surveillance have committed a multitude of both felonies and misdemeanors” and continues:
“Specifically, that they may not labor unjustly:
– Article 292A Criminal Code Crimes against the security of communications: “1. Anyone who without right gains access to a connection or to a telephone service network or to a hardware or software system used to provide such services, and in this way endangers the security of telephone communications, shall be punished by imprisonment of at least 1 year and a fine penalty…4. If the perpetrator of the acts of the previous paragraphs intended to provide himself or another with an illegal financial benefit or cause material damage to another, he is punished with imprisonment of at least three years and a monetary penalty. As long as the total benefit or total damage exceeds the amount of 120,000 the culprit is punished with imprisonment of up to 10 years and a fine. If the acts of the previous paragraphs may jeopardize the fundamental principles and institutions of the State, as mentioned in article 134A of the Civil Code or privacy that refers to the security of the state or the security of public utility facilities, imprisonment is imposed.”
– Illegal collection and knowledge of personal data paragraph 1 and especially paragraph 3 of article 15 of Law 3471/2006: “3. If the perpetrator of the acts of the previous paragraphs had the intention of providing himself or another with an illegal financial benefit or harming a third party, imprisonment of up to ten (10) years and a fine of at least fifteen thousand euros (€15,000) up to one hundred and fifty thousand euros (€150,000). If a risk was caused to the free functioning of the democratic state or to national security, imprisonment and a fine of fifty thousand euros (€50,000) up to three hundred and fifty thousand euros (€350,000).
-Finally, let’s not forget the provision of the criminal organization, article 187 par. 1 PC: “1. Anyone who forms or joins as a member of an operationally structured and with continuous criminal activity an organization of three or more persons, which seeks to commit more felonies, is punished with imprisonment of up to ten years and a monetary penalty.
The above framework can be invoked, in the event that those ministers, parliamentarians and officials of the ND who are alleged to have fallen victim to the illegal surveillance of the Predator’s raptors decide to go to court…”
