Alexandros Giotopoulos, the former leader of the terrorist organization November 17 (17N), has returned to Korydallos Prison after a brief period of freedom. His release, which lasted only 26 days, was overturned by Greece's Supreme Court, which found that the conditions for his parole were not met. Giotopoulos was initially granted release by the Court of Appeals in Piraeus, but this decision was annulled after a successful appeal by the prosecutor.
The Supreme Court stated that Giotopoulos had not shown "genuine remorse" for his actions as required under the new criminal code, which stipulates a minimum of 25 years of imprisonment must be served before eligibility for parole in such cases. This ruling emphasized the need for a fundamental acknowledgment of wrongdoing as a condition for release, asserting that Giotopoulos's history and lack of contrition disqualified him from being granted parole.
On his return to prison, Giotopoulos was seen carrying a small backpack containing personal belongings. His case has sparked debates among political figures and the public regarding the implications of his initial release and the legal framework governing parole for serious crimes.
