Public prosecutor Adamantia Economou is on Monday expected to make her proposal to the court after which defense attorneys will have an opportunity to present their counterarguments. The court will then rule, most likely on Tuesday, on which terms will be suspended.
GD leader Nikos Michaloliakos and another five former MPs, including former party spokesman Ilias Kasidiaris and sitting MEP Ioannis Lagos, face 13-year prison terms.
