The Special Court of Appeal said this Friday that it will decide on June 25 on the appeal of Fredi Beleri, the elected mayor of Himara.

In March, the Special Court sentenced Beler to two years in prison on charges of stealing votes in the May 14, 2023 local elections.

The elected mayor of Himara, Fredi Beleri, has been in prison since May 12, 2023.

Today he requested to be declared innocent. His lawyer said that there is no evidence that proves that Beler has committed the act of buying votes, while adding that the illegal wiretapping cannot be considered evidence.

We recall that Beleri won a seat in the European Parliament as a representative of the leading party in Greece, New Democracy, in the June elections.
