With the annulment request, he took offense at the rejection by the National Intelligence Service of his request to be informed in relation to his monitoring by the National Intelligence Service

The President of PASOK-Movement for Change, Nikos Androulakis, filed today before the Council of State a petition to declare unconstitutional the provision, which prohibits ADAE from informing those who have been monitored by the National Intelligence Service.

With the annulment application, he objected to the rejection by the National Security Agency of his request to be informed in relation to the surveillance of him by the National Intelligence Service and it is requested that it be recognized that the provision of Law 4790/2021 which prohibited the disclosure of the surveillance for reasons of national security it contradicts the Constitution, the ECHR and the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights.

“The provision of Law 4790/2021 should have been repealed from the beginning of August when my monitoring became known. The Government had the opportunity to do so in the Legislative Content Act for the reform of the EYP’s operating framework, which it issued. He didn’t do it. He also had the opportunity to accept a related amendment, submitted by PASOK-Movement for Change on September 29, 2022. He avoided it again. Finally, this aspect of the case also comes to the hands of Justice, so that the validity of the contested provision can be judged. Secrecy was instrumentalized by the Government with the aim of concealment and created islands of lawlessness in the functioning of the State, something that is not understood in a modern European democracy,” said Mr. Androulakis.
