The case of Kaili is in the hands of justice, the Greek Government Spokesman said

The case of Eva Kaili, which is being investigated by the Belgian authorities, The Greek Government Spokesman Yannis Economou referred to the case, during today's briefing of the political editors, stressing that it is up to the justice system to clarify the case.

"The case of Ms. Kaili is in the hands of Justice and we do not prejudge its final outcome," he said. Oikonomou.

At the same time, he criticized the head of PASOK-KINAL, Nikos Androulakis, blaming him for the way he handled the case.


"With political audacity that exceeds all limits, Mr. Androulakis attempted to transfer a moral, political and legal issue concerning a member of his party to New Democracy. It is unthinkable to claim that Mrs. Eva Kaili, a PASOK-KINAL MEP, does not burden - with any moral, political or legal dimension - the area from which she comes and the group of Eurosocialists, but she burdens the New Republic", he pointed out.

Referring to "hypocrisy" and "comically tragic statements", Ikonomou accused PASOK and SYRIZA as a whole of attempting to distract citizens from other major issues.

Specifically regarding the wiretapping case, following new reports that Labour Minister Kostis Hatzidakis was the target of surveillance by the National Security Service, Ikonomou argued that the government has taken initiatives.

"The Government, since last August, has taken drastic political and legislative initiatives to radically address both the surveillance software and the systemic problems in the operation of the NIS," the Government Spokesman said.



"The Greek judiciary is proceeding with the investigation of the situation, including the period of SYRIZA's rule, with the undivided attention of all state authorities, in order to clarify every aspect, including whether activities outside the framework were developed within the NIS," he pointed out.

At the same time, he spoke of "the existence of underground dirty networks, which cooperate with certain media, channeling them material that remains to be proven its degree of truth".

"The change in the leadership of the NIS and the passing of a modern legislation aim to heal wounds of the past and strengthen the Service in the performance of its critical national role," Mr. Economou concluded.
