The Hellenic Radio (ERA): News in English, 10-07-21The Hellenic Radio (ERA): News in English Directory - Previous Article - Next ArticleFrom: The Hellenic Radio (ERA) <www.ert.gr/>CONTENTS[01] Y. Aggelou Released on BailWednesday, 21 July 2010 15:21Yiannis Aggelou, director of former prime-minister K. Karamanlis, was released on â¬400.000 bail and banned from leaving the country after his long testimony on the Batopedi Monastery transfer of land case. The main opposition ND party strongly reacted to Court ruling while ND spokesman Panos Panagiotopoulos said: "this decision violates the principles of Code of Criminal Procedure Code and Criminal Law". "PASOK Conspiracy Culminates" Yiannis Aggelou testimony lasted about 11 hours. He is charged with moral complicity regarding his involvement in the Batopedi Monastery transfer of land case. "All realize at this point that PASOK is neither interested in revealing the truth nor in investigating in depth till the end" said Panos Panagiotopoulos and added: "PASOK is only interested in misleading public opinion, fabricate guilty and distract Greek people attention from its huge mistakes and omissions that led the country to tripartite monitoring". In his statement Anastasios Nerantzis, in charge of ND Justice sector, spoke of culmination of PASOK conspiracy against the ND party. "Apart from the material of the case which is already known, no further evidence has emerged to justify change in stand in the whole case. Mr. Aggelou treatment raises questions, as it is a treatment for admitted or proven by multiple evidence crimes and concerns other defendants for other crimes", said Anastasios Nerantzis. And concludes: "It is clear that we are facing culmination of conspiracy fabricated by PASOK against ND with the setting up of inquiry committees, who do not find anything and passing laws fitted on the construction or blackening witnesses". Defense lawyers maintained: "It was a statement on a charge which according to our opinion legally is groundless and unproved. The charge was based on Mr. Doukas phone call, whose content was misinterpreted and finally changed into an entirely arbitrary charge". His lawyers said: "Mr. Aggelou is the first one who wants truth and logic to prevail and justice attributed though far from any kind of expediencies. Justice can not function under terms or and threat of publicity". Sources: ÍÅÔ, ÍÅÔ 105.8, ÁNA-ÌPA News item: 38709 [02] G.
