"This report, drafted by Mr Zwiefka, concerns the request for waiver of the parliamentary immunity of our fellow Member, Mr Toussas, following the letter from a judge at Piraeus Magistrates’ Court, Athens, Greece. The Public Prosecutor’s Office of Piraeus Magistrates’ Court is accusing this Member of the European Parliament, along with eight other people, of misappropriating a sum in excess of EUR 147 000 as a Member of the Board of the Merchant Seamen’s Fund (NAT). During his hearing before the Committee on Legal Affairs, Mr Toussas alleged that this accusation constituted political persecution, which was not confirmed by said committee. In view of the recommendation of the Committee on Legal Affairs, and although all defendants are considered innocent until proven guilty, I am voting for this proposal for the waiver of the parliamentary immunity of Mr Toussas, since it is crucial for Parliament’s credibility that no form of corporatism exist between us."@en1
