Alexis Kougias, a lawyer for Dimitris Lignadis, filed a request for annulment of the pre-trial phase, he said as he left the interrogator’s office on Wednesday afternoon.
“The first thing we did was file an exception to the nullity of the investigation, because the prosecutor who carried out the preliminary examination limited the evidence only to the testimony of those who proposed with the claims of the alleged victims,” he added. Alexis Kougias said.
According to the criminologist, according to the procedural provisions, nullity occurs when the person who allegedly committed an act has not been previously called to take a copy of the allegations of testimony and testify before the person conducting the preliminary investigation.
The prosecutor can limit himself to this material, when it is a spontaneous crime or the defendant is suspected of running away, said Alexis Kougias, emphasizing that Dimitris Lignadis does not fall into this category, since, as he said, he had presented a document. with which he asked to be examined as a suspect during the days prior to his arrest.
Dimitris Lignadis’s lawyer also stated that the arrest warrant issued against his client again presupposes the spontaneous nature of the crime or the suspicion of the alleged perpetrator of fleeing, something that according to Alexis Kougia does not apply in the case of Lignadis.
“The facts for which my client is accused are two and it must be fully clarified that there are no other facts for which he is accused or other testimonies that concern him. What you hear from 41 witnesses, what you hear from several in the file, is “It is actually a very small 10-page file that only contains the claims of the plaintiffs and the witnesses proposed by the plaintiffs.”
What does the nullity exception say?
The document in the hands of the investigator establishes the essence of the case.
The accused turns directly against the complainants, saying: “The two events attributed to me have an old execution time, August 2010 and August 2015, he saw that the prosecution witnesses were not in a recent relationship with me, but they have to see me for many years, based on the testimonies of 5 to 23 years, many of them living abroad and therefore can not contribute either from a personal perspective or referring to a third person from my environment or even a recent incident , which shows that “I have The plan” to commit new crimes or similar to those attributed to me were different.
At the same time, it states that “the conduct of the preliminary interrogation without being called for explanations and the lack of an objective cross-examination and comparative evaluation of the testimonies until the moment the order was issued, resulted in my own absence from the record and Therefore, the tortuous acceptance by the investigator of the alleged crimes pursued is not due to the existence of serious evidence or to the insufficiency of the allegations of my defense, but to the damage, the unfavorable social and political climate for me and the partial and Partial It is characteristic that two of the prosecution witnesses vaguely state that they had heard rumors about me about my alleged relationships with minors, without mentioning, of course, the “source” of their knowledge “.
According to the lawyer, a deadline was also requested for his client to apologize on Thursday.
