For an unconstitutional process aimed at covering Constantine’s criminal responsibilities. Karamanlis and all those involved in the crime of Tempi is denounced by the New Democracy the new Left in a statement from the Special Committee on Preliminary Investigations for the former Minister of Infrastructure and Transport.
The new Left notes the entire operation of the Commission makes it impossible to submit a reasoned finding as required by the law on the criminal liability of the ministers and is therefore legally, politically and morally unthinkable on its part to legalize an unconstitutional process.
He also adds that the illegal functioning of the committee is a challenge for every democrat citizen of this country but also, in particular, offending the memory of the victims of Tempi crime, those who survived and their relatives.
In detail, the new Left states:
1. The Special Parliamentary Committee for a preliminary examination for the possible commitment by Mr. Konstantinos Karamanlis of Achilles, former Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, of the offense of breach of duty, from September 2021 to 28.02. at the meeting of June 18, 2025.
At the same meeting, all proposals were rejected to investigate possible offenses by Mr. Konstantinos Karamanlis of Achilles to a degree of felony, as well as any other proposal submitted by opposition MPs, including the proposal for the preliminary examination.
The relevant plenary decision, as well as the predecessor for the operation of the Preliminary Inquiry Committee for the possible commitment of the offense of breach of duty by the already defendant, Mr. Christos Triantopoulos, had prepared the political and legal ground for his unlawful operation and the committee.
2. While the Preliminary Inquiry Committee on the possible commitment of the offense of breach of duty by Mr. Konstantinos Karamanlis of Achilles had to conduct a preliminary investigation as set out in the Constitution, the Regulation of the House and the Law on the Liability of the Ministers, Representatives of the opposition parties, to exercise its legitimate responsibilities. Specifically, in the formal of the illegal procedure followed by the respective Parliamentary Committee in the case of Triantopoulos and which was denounced by the overwhelming majority of the legal world and the citizens as illegal, unconstitutional and aimed at covering up government responsibilities and responsibility by its members’ responsibility. Commission:
* denied the call of witnesses
* decided not to grant members of the Committee of the case file that has been forwarded to Parliament with the alleged argument of protecting the secrecy of the pre -trial pre -trial
* decided not to take any procedural action beyond the formal call of Mr. Konstantinos Karamanlis of Achilles
* Finally, he decided to closure the committee’s procedures to the closure of the procedures and appointed a deadline for deposit of the decisive reports on July 16 without actually having not only been substantial but any investigation of the case
3. These acts and omissions during the operation of the Commission were justified by the parliamentary majority on the basis of the new legal arrest that it is legal and also reasonable to bypass the Constitution, the House Regulation and the law on the criminal liability of the ministers with the formal, or even pre -emptive, House, without any substantial investigation, without verifying the facts and without legal entry to the provisions of the criminal law. This position was supported by the majority based on a variant of the “Alivizatos proposal” that the specific pre -trial proceedings provided for by the Constitution may be bypassed or pretended to remove the ministers before their natural judge who is the only one responsible for deciding. This is because of the supposed historically proven inability of the House to effectively exercise its prosecutors as defined by the Constitution and the law on the “criminal responsibility of the ministers”. The obvious irregularities that could even lead to the invalidity of the prosecution are, according to this arrest, being treated by the judicial council that will conduct the interrogation. The fact that, of course, a natural judge in terms of criminal prosecution is the Plenary of the House itself does not seem to be particularly concerned with the majority of the committee, but this is the least. More critical and more serious is that in the name of an exile, political purpose, the first -time violation of the Constitution is legitimized for the first time, explicitly and proudly. It thus opens, not just a road, but a whole avenue for the proliferation and legalization of all kinds of state and government arbitrariness with only the tool for the majority of the House, that is, political power.
This is not only here for legal acrobatics but a dangerous institutional deviation to make the concealment of criminal liability members of the government. In fact, this is the prime minister himself.
4. The legal paradox in this case takes a tranquil dimensions with the apologetic memoir of 130 words by Mr. Karamanlis who, while claiming to be innocent, at the same time calls for his criminal prosecution as if he had the power of himself in the criminal mechanism. This statement seems, according to the majority, to be sufficient to bring criminal prosecution. Things are unheard of, unprecedented and unthinkable in a rule of law are justified in the name of avoiding the political costs of conducting the preliminary examination in accordance with the law, but also by invoking some of the times of the times for the inability of MPs to respond to their responsibility.
6. After all, it is not only obviously impossible to submit a reasoned finding as required by the law on the criminal liability of the ministers but at the same time it is legally, politically and morally unthinkable on the part of the new left to legitimize a loyalist of the unconstitutional procedure and the unconstitutional procedure. Temps.
The illegal functioning of the committee is a challenge for every democrat citizen of this country but also, in particular, offending the memory of the victims of the Tempi crime, those who survived and their relatives.
