#Greece’s lawmakers should withdraw a draft surveillance law, debated in parliament today, that lacks effective privacy & human rights safeguards.

If the government won’t press pause on this risky bill, parliament should.

More on the bill from @hrw here:
hrw.org/news/2022/12/0… @hrw The bill is a flawed attempt to respond to a spyware scandal described as the "Greek Watergate" that has shaken Greek politics as it was revealed by investigative media outlets that dozens prominent figures were targeted by secret services and spyware.

After 5 years, a court in Athens will deliver its verdict against #GoldenDawn trial suspects, for their role in the murders of Pavlos Fyssas and Shehzad Luqman, and numerous brutal attacks against migrants & refugees.

I'm available for comment.

#GDtrial #Greece Image Proud to know that @hrw 2012 report “Hate on the Streets: Xenophobic Violence in Greece” documenting how gangs of Greeks regularly attacked migrants and asylum seekers across #Greece contributed to the fight against #GoldenDawn and to this trial.

Together with 28 other groups, @hrw calls in an open letter to Greek MPs for an inquiry into abuses at borders.

Parliament should examine whether border abuses are part of a de facto government policy at odds with international, European, and Greek law.

hrw.org/news/2020/10/0… In the letter, groups have attached a long list of reports documenting the pattern of abuse at borders by Greek law enforcement officers or unidentified masked men, who appear to be working in tandem with border enforcement officials.
