The trial by the Golden Dawn criminal organization is in the final stretch, as on Friday it enters the stage of the “battle” of suspensions, with those convicted requesting the granting of suspensive power of the appeal.
Tomorrow the prosecutor’s proposal of suspension or not of the sentences is expected, while then the lawyers will speak before the court makes its final decision.
The goldsmiths today mobilized family, friends and neighbors in a last-ditch effort to convince the court that they should not be taken to prison, with the sole exception of Pavlos Fyssas’s killer, Giorgos Roupakias.
Former Golden Dawn MPs Artemis Mattheopoulos, Nikos Kouzilos, Konstantinos Barbarousis and Panagiotis Iliopoulos arrived at the Court of Appeal today.
The trial will continue tomorrow with the accusations of other defendants, including most of the former parliamentarians.
The “farmer” Barbarousis
Most of the witnesses who came forward to plead for the suspension of the sentences cited issues of the health or economic survival of their families.
Among them is the former deputy of Etoloakarnania, Konstantinos Barbarousis, who appeared in the room with his father to say that his survival depends solely on his son. “If he serves his sentence, I’m finished,” said his father. 
Elias Barbarousis came to court supported by his own son with black glasses and a cane, as he faces a serious vision problem.
“He has been with us since he did not leave parliament. He was married, divorced, they were not found. His children live with their mother, they are 8, 9 and 10 years old. He takes care of the fields and the sheep. He has a diet of 1,500. euros and we help him, no chicken, no eggs. I end up if he goes to jail. I am 40 km from Agrinio. When he was deputy in Athens until May 2017, I had no problem. My wife has health problems. My son He helps financially. He will not be able to feed his children, nor will he be able to help me. I want 2-3 taxis a month to get down from the town of Athens. “
“He takes care of the fields and the sheep. He lives with us in a house. He is married and divorced. His children came when the schools closed. I am finished if he serves his sentence. Until the 17th I had no vision problems.” Now I have and my wife has a health problem, “said the witness, among other things.
The president’s nail
Throughout the process, Konstantinos Barbarousis sat behind him, anxiously watching the reactions from headquarters. After his testimony, the witness left the court with the help of his son.
Kon. Barbarousis even asked the president if he could leave and she replied:
“What can I tell you?” You are accused and we have seen you today for 5.5 years … »
The ridiculous arguments of the gold diggers
His lawyer described the murder of Sahzat Lukman by his client, Christos Stergiopoulos, as an “affair with the Pakistanis.”
“Never in his life, other than what you know, has he committed another crime. She is over 40 years old and has a mother of 85 with serious health problems. These are the conditions in which he was a good student in high school, passed exams, went to the fire department but unfortunately had the well-known affair with the Pakistani. “The Athens Mixed Jury Court of Appeals granted relief to the defendant and reduced the sentence of life imprisonment to 20 years, he worked in prison, complied and was released,” he said.
He even claimed that … he was a good student in high school, passed exams, went to the fire brigade but unfortunately had the well-known “affair” with the Pakistani.
For Ioannis Kazantzoglou, who has been convicted of complicity in the murder of Pavlos Fyssas in 10 years and 2 months in court, his fiancee testified. 
The witness, visibly upset, stated that she had known her partner for 16 years.
He said that he was not working and that his father had health problems.
The witness stated that she was pregnant with the convict and that she had two more children from another marriage, which was supported by Ioannis Kazantzoglou.
With tears in her eyes, the witness asked the court to suspend the execution of her sentence.
In the morning he delivered food, in the afternoon he gave orders
For George Patelis, the nuclear chief of Nice, who has been sentenced to 10 years in prison and 2 months, a witness who testified in court asked for his sentence to be suspended, stating, among other things:
“We have been very good friends with George since 2011. I asked him for help when we had nothing to eat. I have two young children. Our family had no help from anywhere, some of my acquaintances had told me about George. He even paid my bills from light, everything. He is a great man. He also gave us food. He is a good family man. His son is everything to him and he needs him with everything that has happened Γιώ George has written a song against violence and harassment “.
Strong statement from Kampagianni – Papadaki
In a statement, Thanasis Kampagiannis, Costas Papadakis and Costas Skarmeas indicate that, in addition to the director of the criminal organization, the other sentences are shorter than the corresponding ones and there is a risk that they will not be carried out.
According to his announcement, the sentences are “objectively low in relation to jurisprudence and judicial practice for such serious crimes, without the provisions of the Penal Code hindering them.”
Five perpetrators who, according to the verdict, tried to kill at night by hitting the head of the unsuspecting Egyptian fisherman, who did not know them or did not know them, on the head with iron crowbars, and they split his jaw in two, leaving him bleeding. “They rushed to beat the others, they were punished for this crime, as well as for joining a criminal organization, with a sentence of 10 years (one without attenuation) and 7 years, the other four,” he emphasizes.
In Domokou Prison, the director of the criminal organization
Type B prisons in Domokos have five wings and are held by hardened criminals. In a specially designed space that will not have contact with the rest of the detainees, cells are already being prepared for the six of the director of the Golden Dawn criminal organization.
The leader of the criminal organization, Nikos Michaloliakos, Artemis Mattheopoulos, Christos Pappas, George Germenis, Elias Panagiotaros and Elias Kasidiaris will have their own cell.
The security measures in Domokos for the six will be very strict.
According to informants, the convicts of Golden Dawn will go to court alone without coming into contact with the rest of the population. Likewise, the scenario of not having contacts with each other due to the scale of the Cold War that prevails within the criminal organization is being examined.
The controls that will be made in their cells will be daily, while they will be under surveillance throughout the day.
Even the visitors that they will receive will be made under certain conditions, although they will not have the right to request a permit for several years.
What applies to Roupakia
Pavlos Fyssas’s killer, Giorgos Roupakias, is expected to return to Malandrino prison, where he was detained for 18 months.
As the test approaches, the scenarios of what the harsh Golden Dawn will do are raging. Police sources affirm that it is not ruled out that some of the former deputies will appear alone either in the Court of Appeals or in GADA, where they will probably do their last show in front of the cameras before ending up in prison.
At the same time, the scenario of someone resisting arrest is getting weaker by the hour.
According to the program of the General Directorate of Policy Against Crime, the prisons of Domokou will be transformed into disciplinary prisons, where persons convicted of terrorism and participation in criminal organizations will be held.
certain conditions, although they will not have the right to apply for a permit for several years.
Next steps for Hare
The European Parliament has entered uncharted waters, but the steps for the demolition of the golden hare have already been started.
The first step is to finalize the sanctions so that the Greek state reports to the European Parliament.
Immediately afterwards, the Office of the Public Prosecutor for Misconduct forwards the corresponding file to the Office of the Supreme Court Prosecutor, who will send the file with the sentences to Brussels, as well as the request to lift the immunity of the “hard” Nazi gang.
The Legal Affairs Committee reviews the file and then sends it to the European Parliament for a final decision.
