I try to understand how you led and what you led … “ one of his lawyers pointed out and continued: “If it’s about making an ideological tribunal and I didn’t take it lightly, then it’s my fault. “But because I know where I am, you can’t tell me that he has a criminal organization, because he was the general secretary of a legitimate political party.”

“K. must not be exterminated. Barbarian“Asked the lawyer of the convicted person, requesting the attenuation of the legal life, the subsequent good behavior, the unreasonable duration of the trial but also the non-humble motives.” There is an incompatibility between the decision and the prosecutor’s proposal, which creates the expectation that in the appeal trial that the party will have been dissolved, it will occur in other circumstances, “he said, arguing that lawyers cannot be put in mitigation when they do not know the reasoning of the court decision.” Barbarousis is being sanctioned because at some point it became politicized since we do not have the rest of the reasons for the decision. It did not participate in any decision-making. What did the criminal organization expect? I have no reason … “concluded his defense.
