Wiretapping probe closure called 'black page for Justice' in Greece

A controversial decision by Greek judicial authorities to close an investigation into wiretapping allegations has drawn sharp criticism, with media outlets labeling it a "black page for Justice." The Prosecutor General of the Supreme Court reportedly rejected four requests for a renewed investigation into the matter.

According to reports, the rejections were based on either legal grounds or the assertion that no new evidence had emerged. This move has fueled accusations of a cover-up surrounding the scandal. However, the article notes that a second-instance trial related to the wiretapping case is scheduled for December, suggesting the legal proceedings are not entirely concluded.

Beyond the wiretapping scandal, the publication "Ta Nea" also addresses other pressing issues. It highlights challenges faced by firefighters, pointing to issues such as "holey water tanks" and ineffective firebreaks, suggesting systemic problems in fire prevention and response.

The newspaper's weekend edition also touches upon international relations, mentioning Turkey, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia. Additionally, it offers advice for a better life with "nine dos and three don'ts," and discusses the impact of tourism on a neighborhood, alongside a piece about a performance involving a wolfdog.
