Prosecution for a felony against Konstantinos Floros for the beating in the Parliament

The public prosecutor brought a felony prosecution against the independent MP, who was initially elected with the “Spartiats” party, Konstantinou Florou, for the incident with the Hellenic Solution MP, Vassilis Grammenos.

Charges were brought against a member of parliament for assault during the performance of his duties (Article 157 of the Civil Code), a crime punishable by five to ten years in prison.

The defendant, who remains in custody tonight, after the deadline he received from the investigator, is asked to apologize for violence against a member of parliament during the exercise of his duties, for the attack inside the Parliament against the member of Hellenic Solution, Vassilis Grammenos.

According to statements by the defendant’s lawyer, Vassos Pantazis, the incident was preceded by a “vulgar verbal attack” by the victim towards her principal.

The advocate referred to “justified indignation”, as “provided for and defined in the criminal law”. At the same time, Mrs. Pantazi, expressing surprise at the criminal charge against Mr. Floros, spoke of “legal exaggeration” over an unfortunate personal incident.

Hellenic Solution MP V. Grammenos, who was attacked by K. Floros, left the Parliament with a broken nose and a splint on his hand.

As the Hellenic Solution’s parliamentary representative, K. Chitas, told reporters, V. Grammenos suffered from the attack of K. Floros, fractured nasal bones, sprain and strain of the acromioclavicular joint, traumatic rupture of the wrist and fifeocarpal ligament.

According to Mr. Chita, his colleague put a fifeocarpal rest splint on him, while the hospital gave him a 10-day sick leave.
