After 1:00 p.m. today, the MP Konstantinos Floros will be brought before the investigator for his statement, accused of a felony for the attack inside the Parliament against the Hellenic Solution MP Vassilis Grammenos.
The accused, who remains in custody on Wednesday night after the deadline he received from the Investigator, is asked to apologize for violence against a deputy during the exercise of his duties.
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 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.
The Prosecutor announced a felony charge for violence against a member of parliament
Yesterday Wednesday, the Prosecutor charged the independent MP, from the “Spartians”, Konstantinos Floros, with a felony charge for violence against a member of parliament for the attack inside the Parliament against the member of Hellenic Solution, Vassilis Grammenos.
The serious incident that resulted in the injury of Mr. Grammenos, activated, with the immediate intervention of the Speaker of the Parliament, Kostas Tasoulas, the spontaneous procedure for committing a felony and thus the independent member of parliament was arrested immediately after his act.
A criminal prosecution was brought against the MP based on article 157 of the Criminal Code in the felony form of the first paragraph, which states that:
“Whoever, by force or threat of force, imposes on the Parliament or the Government or on a member of them the execution, omission or tolerance of an act related to their duties, shall be punished with imprisonment of at least ten years. The same penalty is imposed if the act is directed against a leader of a political party recognized in the Parliament’s regulations”.
The accused was taken after the prosecution to the Investigator. He will remain a prisoner until his apology.
How did the episode in Parliament happen?
The incident took place on Wednesday 24/04 while the debate on lifting the immunity of the president of the Hellenic Solution, Kyriakos Velopoulos, was ongoing in the Plenary Session of the Parliament, following a lawsuit for defamation filed against him by the father of Konstantinos Floros.
Mr. Floros, whose father had brought the lawsuit against Mr. Velopoulos, had requested to take the floor in the Plenary, however the regulation did not allow it and he was not given it, reacting to the petition of the parliamentary representative of the Hellenic Solution, Constantinos Cheta, for carbine pre-election political expediency which, although it does not concern Mr. Velopoulos, requested the lifting of his immunity in order to appear before his natural judge.
According to information, in the Plenary there was a verbal confrontation between Mr. Floros and Mr. Grammenos:
The same information states that Mr. Floros reacted by yelling at Mr. Chita that “this will be decided by the judges”, Mr. Grammenos replied “you screw it up, trash”, while he continued with other harsh characterizations.
When the two men came out of the Plenary, Mr. Floros attacked him, grabbed him by the neck, punched him and threw him to the floor.
