Yesterday’s revelation of an audio document from 2016 brought a political storm, based on which the late Andreas Vgenopoulos was blackmailed by a businessman who appeared as a messenger of the then president of the Supreme Court, Vasiliki Thanou.
Apocalypse may also bring judicial developmentsas the Supreme Court Prosecutor’s Office is examining the possibility of re-investigating Vgenopoulos’s allegations of blackmail, in the light of new revelations that have come to light.
It is recalled that the late Vgenopoulos had filed an indictment, after his public complaints in 2016, which had been filed within a few days, without calling any witnesses.
The case provoked a strong reaction from the opposition parties, with New Democracy leading the way, which called on Alexis Tsipras to answer the questions that arise, as if he knew about the action of Mrs. Thanos, “who became President of the Supreme Court during his prime ministership.” Pagou, caretaker Prime Minister and his legal adviser, to finally appoint her Chairman of the Competition Commission “.
Also, in its announcement, Piraeus spoke about a dark circuit that operated in the field of Justice “in synergy with the SYRIZA government”.
“Mr. Tsipras can no longer hide. “It must give specific answers,” said ND.
SYRIZA is degrading
For its part, SYRIZA tried to degrade the revelation saying that it is known and has already been examined since 2016 by Justice. He attributed the revelation of the audio document in an attempt to distract the public debate on the orders of Megaro Maximos and commented:
“Can Mr. Mitsotakis say the same about those who govern us today?” commented.
The position of the main opposition party provoked new reaction of ND, which in a second announcement stated: “It is really impressive that SYRIZA does not find a word to say about the essence of all the shocking things that are revealed in the controversial conversation! Not a word, about the blackmail, the ‘libraries’ the bribes that are described!
Maybe for SYRIZA all this was “normality” in his day, based on what is constantly coming to light.
Instead of responding, he attacked the government and the Prime Minister personally. In this way it shows that Mr. Tsipras continues to fully cover Ms. Thanou, Mr. Papagelopoulos and their practices during the SYRIZA government “.
The answer of V. Thanou
After the publication of the audio document, Ms. Thanou issued a statement stating: “The answer to the reasonable question that arises in everyone, why now and after six (6) years, some people remembered to” remake “the fabricated my miserable slander by the then controlled by Justice Andr. Vgenopoulos, is the following:
At a time when people are anxious about how to pay for electricity, oil, gasoline and all kinds of basic necessities, whose prices are rising daily, some, serving specific politicians, try to distract citizens from their serious daily lives. problems involving my name in a corruption case.
At the same time, they should be justified in this way, both internally and in the European Institutions, where these persons are very exposed, due to the criminal prosecutions against the Prosecutors and the journalists, who were investigating the corruption in the Novartis case and in the Lagarde List.
Obviously, they can not forget that during my forty years of service in Justice I was one of those who never agreed to cover up corruption.
“I reserve the right to immediately exercise all my legal rights against those who recycle the miserable slanders against me, which were investigated and filed by the Prosecutor General’s Office.”
KINAL: Immediate and in-depth investigation
The Movement for Change demands an immediate and in-depth investigation of the new elements that emerge from the audio document.
The announcement of KINAL states: “The new data that come to light show -in disgusting details- that persons who were very close to Mr. Tsipras and the SYRIZA ANEL Government, participated in a whole network of extortion and underground transactions with business interests. .
The Movement for Change insists on the need for an immediate and in-depth investigation by the Greek Justice. To shed plenty of light on a dark affair that continues to this day to undermine citizens’ trust in the institutions of the State.
It is a matter of Transparency and Democracy. “
The case was also commented by Andreas Loverdos, one of the politicians whose name was implicated in the Novartis case. “Every democratic citizen listens and frys”, says Mr. Loverdos and quotes excerpts from his book “Attempted Murder”, which he states he wrote without having as creepy evidence as those that saw the light of day.
