Supreme Court to Rule on Judge Doria Varosiou's Dismissal on February 6th

The Supreme Constitutional Court will issue its final decision on February 6th regarding the objection of Judge Doria Varosiou against her dismissal. Ms. Varosiou had filed an objection after the decision of the Supreme Judicial Council to terminate her appointment, citing legal errors and procedural violations. The case has sparked reactions due to the judge's association with the investigation into the death of Thanassis Nikolaou, where her decision to classify the death as a criminal act was pioneering. During the hearing, legal representatives presented different views on the legality of the termination of Ms. Varosiou's term.
