Supreme Court Prosecutor Georgia Adilini on Thursday ordered the criminal prosecution of 11 opposition MPs of the Spartiates party, as well as jailed former Golden Dawn MP Ilias Kasidiaris, on charges of defrauding the electorate. The head of the Spartiates party, Vasilis Stigas, is not being prosecuted.

A Greek Misdemeanours Court on Thursday handed down a six-month prison sentence, suspended for three years, for far-right Golden Dawn party MP Ilias Kasidiaris after finding him guilty of inciting others to commit crimes.

The leader of neo-Nazi Golden Dawn party and most of its recently elected MPs will go on trial soon on submitted charges of belonging to a criminal organization.
