Rejection of Monk Nektarios' Request Regarding Evidence Retention
May 27, 2026
The Supreme Court rejected the monk Nektarios' request to annul a decree for the retention of evidence from the Holy Monastery of Abbacum. The evidence includes videos and personal data collected from the monastery's surveillance. The monk argued that the retention violates his privacy and personal data rights, but the court decided that the evidence was legally submitted to the police. The ruling noted that the retention of evidence is not related to violations of the claimant's data. Thus, monk Nektarios' request was dismissed.
