1/3 @PDimitras is under a criminal investigation connected to his human rights work in #Greece. In January, he was banned from travel & from continuing his human rights activities. The authorities should formally notify him of the status of these restrictions @GreeceInGeneva
2/3 Media reports also suggest that Panayote is being investigated by the anti-money laundering authority. Panayote himself has received no notification of any such investigation, frustrating his access to remedy. Leaks of such investigations are commonly used to smear #HRDs.
3/3 An appeal hearing in a separate case brought against Panayote & his colleague at the Greek Helsinki Monitor is set for 16 June. I will be following the outcome of the case, which is connected to the defenders' work against hate speech.
