The Union of Prosecutors in Greece has voiced strong objections to a recent directive issued by Deputy Minister of Justice, Ioannis Bougas, which instructs prosecutors on service allocation. In a public statement, the Union argues that the document undermines judicial independence and violates the constitutional principle of separation of powers, fundamental to democracy. They have called for the immediate retraction of the directive to restore constitutional order. The Union emphasizes that any general instructions should originate solely from designated judicial authorities in accordance with the existing legal framework.
