Eight individuals targeted by Predator spyware have filed lawsuits against the Israeli firm Intellexa and 13 other individuals in an Athens court. The plaintiffs are seeking a total of approximately €7.6 million in damages, with each individual requesting €1 million for moral harm.

Among the plaintiffs are journalist Thanasis Koukakis and Penelope Miniati, a former director of the Hellenic Police’s Forensic Division. Some of the individuals who filed lawsuits had previously testified as witnesses in the case but had not formally joined the charge.

The lawsuits were filed before the Multi-Member Court of First Instance in Athens. The lawyer representing the victims, Zacharias Kesses, stated that the lawsuits target Intellexa and 13 individuals accused of establishing and operating the surveillance network. This development follows a Greek court's conviction of four people for the illegal use of Predator spyware, a case linked to a surveillance scandal in Cyprus.
