slowdown or "white strike" in protest against government plans to cut a bonus for faster handling of cases and a library benefit. This was suggested by Supreme Court Judge Haralambos Athanassiou, the president of the Judges and Prosecutors' Union in an interview with the ANA-MPA on Sunday.
During this, Athanassiou accused the government's economic team of passing measures that attempted to undermine and abolish the independence of Greek justice.
"During the 'white' strike the judges will reduce the number of rulings issued each day by 75 percent, leading to exasperation of the public, offences becoming statute-barred and the country's condemnation for delays in administering justice," he said.
