Direct Democracy party submits resolution seeking resignations of top legal officials

The political party Direct Democracy has submitted a resolution to the House of Representatives demanding the resignation of the Attorney General, Savvidis, and the Assistant Attorney General, Angelidis. The resolution follows findings by the Independent Anti-Corruption Authority regarding allegations mentioned in the book 'State Mafia'. The text highlights a significant loss of public trust in the Legal Service and emphasizes the necessity for institutional independence and impartiality. Both the Attorney General and his deputy have opted to recuse themselves from further handling the findings of the investigation. The resolution calls for an objective and untainted probe into the allegations, the completion of ongoing criminal investigations, and the prosecution of any individuals found guilty of wrongdoing. Furthermore, the party urges the government to implement legislative and constitutional amendments to modernize the Legal Service and enhance its accountability mechanisms. The motion specifically cites concerns regarding potential cover-ups, impunity, and conflicts of interest within the judicial framework.
