Prosecution To Probe Independent Greek MP Over FB Comment About Stournaras


On the same day that Greek Finance Minister Yannis Stournaras received a bullet in the mail from some revolutionaries in Crete, Dimis Argyropoulos, an MP from the Independent Greeks party apparently made a nasty comment on his Facebook page.

This prompted first instance prosecutor Panayiota Fakou to launch a probe in order to ascertain whether the Greek MP incited others to violence or disturbed the peace. “Next time, they will plant them in him,” Argyropoulos wrote in reaction to the news that a bullet had been sent to Stournaras by an organization calling itself Cretan Revolution.

“People are enraged. Those idiots haven’t realized it,” added the MP, who said that his remark had been a humorous comment made “in the heat of the moment.”
