The former leader of Synaspismos party Nikos Konstantopoulos will testify on Tueasday instead of today on MPs’ bribery allegations case.

Mr. Konstantopoulos was initially scheduled to testify today, but it was postponed as a result of the witness’ prior commitments.

Mr. Konstantopoulos seems to have been the first one to speak of briberies among MPs in order to ensure the election of the new President of the Republic. More specifically, Mr. Konstantopoulos said to Parapolitika newspaper in early September: “Behind the scenes efforts are being made so as not to hold elections, with pressures, promises, benefits and exchanges that remind of old, sinful periods of time.”
