ECHR Ruling on Fair Trial in Dromolaxia Case
November 26, 2024
The European Court of Human Rights ruled in favor of national courts, rejecting the application of Grigoris Souroullas and Venizelos Zannetou regarding their right to a fair trial. The case relates to their conviction in the Dromolaxia scandal, with key evidence being the testimony of Nicos Lillis, who was acquitted of charges. The Court found that the national authorities handled the evidence carefully and that the applicants' arguments were hypothetical. This decision underscores the integrity of the judicial process.
