Yos Beleris in OPEN: He was acquitted in three courts, in Greece he has a clean criminal record

“THE my father has been acquitted in all three trials that took place» says his son Freddy Bellerispeaking to OPEN and the “Hour of Greece” show, saying that the reports about the convictions of the candidate in the 2024 European elections are being spread by “nationalist circles in Albania”.

As Petros Beleris initially states: “He has been involved in politics and public affairs for the last 30 years and you understand what it means for a candidate not to be out in the world and loses the election periodto be incarcerated».

“He has been acquitted by three courts – In Greece he has a clean criminal record”

Then asked about the reports being made about his convictions his father, answers: “There have been three courts in Albaniain which he has been acquitted of all three. If there was even a doubt that he might have been involved in any illegal activity in the past, believe me, they wouldn’t give it to us. I want to inform you that we have the support of several Albanian citizens and in Greece has a clean criminal record. I think that these views are identified with extreme nationalist circles in Albania and the who do not want Himarra to be served justice and assume the duties as mayor».

“THE my father’s candidacy and in general the Beleri case is supra-party. There is undivided support and response, it is normal to have differences. But I have seen support from all Greek parties. From the KKE to the right-wing parties“, he pointed out.

“He had more than three proposals from Greece”

He also revealed that Freddy Beleris had proposals from other parties to be a candidate in Greece. “More than three. From the whole spectrum, from parties in the parliament to parties that are not yet in the parliament”, said his son characteristically.

“The only witness admitted that he was financed”

Finally, he emphasized that: “An injustice has happened. A man before the municipal elections was arrested because the regime’s time was running out in Himarra with one flimsy indictmentwith a single witness who admitted to being financed to set up a plot by the Albanian police. We want to send the message that the fight continues and on June 9th send a message of pride and freedom.”
