How Is It Like for Refugees to Get Legal Aid in Greece?
Due to baseless allegations laid against me by the Police in November, I had been attending hearings at the Evelpidon Court ever since. Although the trial has been deferred three times, I am obligated to attend yet another hearing on June 15th, 2023, where a defense attorney will assist me, and it is probable that the case will conclude afterward.
A more detailed account of those incidents can be accessed through the extensive article that is provided here.
Takeaways:
- Rather than finding a solution for my case, I have been subjected to prosecution by Greece and its law enforcement agencies for a decade on unfounded allegations.
- The Evelpidon Court, where I have been taken to by the Police for 27 different cases so far, has only ever issued prison sentences for all my cases with five of those cases resulting in my incarceration.
- Throughout my previous trials, I have never been granted legal aid and am uncertain if the upcoming hearing will differ in this regard. However, we can only wait and see if the legal representative has the capacity to vindicate me against these baseless charges and rescue me from incarceration.
- Greece has made use of virtually every measure within its disposal to engineer my death through starvation and subsequently conceal the whole process. Given the severity of my situation, it is uncertain whether I'll survive retrospectively till my impending trial in June.
- Urgent assistance is imperative to secure my survival, however, even the UNHCR and other Humanitarian NGOs are not showing any willingness to provide support.
