Under new electoral robes, imprisoned former Golden Dawn MP campaigns for re-election Ilias Casidiaris pass a legality check, which will be carried out from scratch o Supreme Court for the June 25 elections. Ilias Kasidiaris announced yesterday in a statement that he intends to retire candidate for parliament in Athens A’ with a coalition of independent candidates called “Greeks”.
As he explains in his statement, his campaign with a coalition of independents who will run in several constituencies in the territory does not violate the prohibitions of the recent law. In fact, in support of his claims, Ilias Casidiaris used in his statement an earlier reference by a well-known constitutionalist Nikos Alivisatos.
However, Mr. Alivisatos himself took a stand immediately after Kasidiaris’ statement, emphasizing that the campaign robe with which a Golden Dawn prisoner attempts to run in elections is not exempt from the direct prohibitions of recent law. “It’s not clear,” Mr. Alivisatos said, “union of independent candidates across the country. Actually it is a political party. This is a clear attempt to circumvent the prohibitive provisions of the recent law.”
Except, authoritative judicial sources from the Supreme Court pointedly pointed to “K” that a recent law barring convicted former Golden Dawn officials from participating in the electoral process leaves no room for a reversal by the Supreme Court, which barred Kasidiaris from running on May 21st. The same sources report that coalition of independent candidates, referenced by Ilias Kasidiaris, is essentially a party violating party law by accepting Alivisatos’ argument, as well as a scientific position that was already formulated in an unsuspecting time by the university, Mr. Pan. Pantelis, who participates in the Academic Council of the Parliament.
In any case, the possibility of participation of Kasidiaris in the next elections will be decided from the very beginning by the Supreme Court, as well as the participation of all parties and political formations that apply to participate in the upcoming elections. As it became known from the competent department of the Supreme Court A1, the procedure for checking the legality of the elections on June 25 will begin next week, immediately after the dissolution of parliament, which will take place next Monday, and the declaration of parties, the formation of politicians, will take place immediately after the three days of the Holy Spirit.
The Supreme Court will formally and substantively review the applications of all parties, starting with their names and emblems, as was done in the recent elections, where parties such as Mr. Emfetsoglu, Bogdanou and Aphroditis Latinopoulou failed the legitimacy test for formal reasons. However, if these reasons have disappeared, they can re-apply for participation in the elections and be tried.
