In the Prosecution of Cybercrime, in order to submit all the evidence he has, so that internet trolls who attack him can be identified, the SYRIZA executive, Panos Skourletis, was found today.

In his statement he said: “Democracy in our country is being undermined and collapsed by the wiretapping scandal. ΄

A brazen system of illegal surveillance under the responsibility of the prime minister has been installed in Maximos for years. The Independent Authorities and their members are being targeted and together the rule of law is being affected.

The country lags internationally in terms of the quality of democracy and the functioning of institutions. In this sick environment, fake accounts on the internet target, smear and sow hate and toxicity by undermining and discrediting the content of public dialogue.

Opposite this one grim reality democratic citizens and democratic forces have an obligation to resist and defend the rule of law and democracy.”
