Greek MEP Eva Kaili will remain in prison for another month, as decided and announced by the Belgian judges, after her morning testimony.
Eva Kaili’s lawyers, as they told the journalists outside the courthouse in the Belgian capital earlier today, argued before the judges that the Greek MEP is innocent, has not been bribed and is cooperating with the authorities.
They did not manage to convince them however.
According to the official announcement of the Belgian prosecutor, if Eva Kaili appeals against this decision within 24 hours, she will appear again before the court, the Appeals Examination Division, within 15 days.

The official announcement mentions only the initials of Mrs. Kaili (E.K.), emphasizing that it was decided to extend her detention for one more month.
It is worth mentioning that the Belgian prosecutor even raised the possibility she could be “kidnapped by the secret services of Qatar, who will send spies to take her to Qatar”, when Eva Kaili’s lawyers (s.s. Mrs. Dimitrakopoulos and Rizopoulos) suggested parole with home confinement and an electronic bracelet.
