"Question No 44 by Ioannis Marinos ():
Following the recent arrest of terrorists in Greece, most of those arrested have admitted belonging to the terrorist organisation ‘November 17’. However, over the last few days the Greek press has reported – on the basis of information from the above persons or their lawyers – that ‘some of them intend to alter their confessions with the aim of securing their release in 10-12 years' time’and have invoked the status of ‘political prisoner’ on the basis of ‘similar instances in other European countries’, as press publications and TV analyses have reported.
Is the Commission aware of the existence of any legal arrangements governing political prisoners in the democracies of the European Union, given that after the recent changes in Community legislation terrorists face tougher treatment, even if it is assumed that the murders and robberies they commit are inspired by ‘noble’ ideological motives?"@en1
