Appeals Court Public Prosecutor Spyros Mouzakitis on Monday sent out eight summons to suspects being charged over their part in the occupation of an Athens university law school building by hundreds of illegal immigrants. The eight suspects have been asked to testify in a preliminary inquiry into the affair on Wednesday and Thursday.
One of the summons sent out was to Athens University rector Theodosis Pelegrinis, who is being charged with a misdemeanour offence of breach of duty over his handling of the incident and will be asked to provide explanations for his actions.
The remaining summons are for the criminal offence of trafficking migrants and concern the assistance provided to the group of migrants in reaching Athens from Crete. They have been sent to the members of the "Solidarity Committee" that helped the migrants to organise their protest and enter the university building, where they would be covered by asylum legislation that barred police from entering to remove them without permission from university authorities.
The prosecutor is also continuing an investigation into the offences of disturbing the peace and damaging property.
