Stefanos Nikolaidis
In his decision Christos Triantopoulos be directly referred by the pre -trial committee to judicial councilthat is to say natural judgefor any criminal responsibility his in the tragedy of Tempsreported the well -known criminologist Michalis Dimitrakopoulosspeaking to skai.gr.
“The ministers, when committing a criminal offense, also have criminal responsibility. If we citizens commit a criminal offense, the prosecutor is responsible for the prosecution, “Mr Dimitrakopoulos initially said. “In the case of Triantopoulos we are talking about ministers and ministers has been a provision since 1840, which is what he says? That a prosecution is needed by the House of Representatives. This is the case so that the political world can do its duties and not to run from trial to trial all the time. Especially in Greece we are a little prone to the lawsuits and lawsuits constantly. “
“High risk Triantopoulos Movement – in the Supreme Court no cover up”
Regarding whether the Triantopoulos Movement is maneuvering on his part, the well -known lawyer speaks of a high risk movement for him. “The Ministers’ Liability Act provides for the following: In order to be prosecuted by the House for someone, a special committee must be set up, the preliminary or preliminary investigation as it is said. This preliminary investigation works as the prosecutor, that is, has the ability to do research, gather all the evidence, and finally make a finding that will suggest prosecution. “
And explains:
“Do we all say that this ministerial responsibility law be abolished in order for each Minister to go directly to the natural judge? What is better and more interesting for Triantopoulos: to be tried by the pre -investigation where his party, ND, has the majority or an independent court of Areopagites? “
Asked if there is a matter of concealment this way, he stresses that there is no concealment on the Supreme Court. “Areopagite will go to Areopagite and ask for more elements. Meanwhile, the Areopagite investigator has the opportunity to ask the House to take back the case file and say “I see under criminal liability of other ministers”. This can upgrade the indictment from a misdemeanor to a felony and get into the frame for example until another minister, such as Karamanlis. “
“Instead of all this, the opposition wants the finding of the pre -trial, where the majority is the ND and is in the interest of ND. So there is absolutely no issues of concealment. The Constitutional Judicial Council consists of 3 Areopagites and 2 State Counselors, which will result from a draw. “
Finally, in terms of relatives, Mr. Dimitrakopoulos clarifies that they are “embedded with pure emotions”.
“Only they really hurt for the tragic loss of 57 children. I am sure that if they are informed of what is true of Article 86, they will understand that this is in fact the predominantly legal and constitutional basis for the Triantopoulos case, “he concludes.
