All those who apologized today (12/13/2024) for participating in the ring of urban planners at Chalcidice.
So far, 12 of the 21 arrested for the ring of urban planners in Halkidiki have passed the threshold of the investigative office, with the process continuing tomorrow Saturday (14/12/2024), when the remaining 9 involved will also be excused.
The 12 defendants who were called to give explanations are private individuals and the majority of them are architects, civil engineers and surveyors.
As it became known, with the agreement of the investigator and the prosecutor, most of them were released, with restrictive conditions (appearance at the police station and prohibition of exit). In addition, four persons were given bail of 5,000 (two), 50,000 and 60,000 euros.
The largest guarantee was imposed on the accused former mayor (civil engineer) and the next on a relative of the main accused, among the officials involved. All those who have appeared before the investigator so far have denied the acts attributed to them.
Tomorrow (14/12/2024) the rest of the defendants will take the baton of apologies, among which are four employees of the Directorate and Construction Service of the municipalities of Sithonia and N. Propontidas, as well as two members of the Architectural Council of the Halkidiki Regional Unit.
All the defendants are prosecuted on a case-by-case basis with the following acts: management and participation in a criminal organization, bribery, direct cooperation in bribery, money laundering and gang.
