[01] Indictments for 85 to stand trial in Greek football match-fixing
scandal
ANA-MPA - The Appeals Justices' Council on Thursday indicted 85 people to
stand trial before a criminal appeals court in relation to a match-fixing
scandal dating back to 2011 in the Greek football league.
The indictment names players, coaches and club owners, including current
mayor for Volos Achilleas Beos and others in connection with charges
such as setting up a criminal organisation, bribery and illegal betting.
The council fully dropped all charges again current Olympiakos club
President Vangelis Marinakis as unsupported by the evidence, as well as
individual charges against others of the defendants, while asking for a
separate process for specific charges, such as that of money-laundering
against Beos.
