New Democracy is expected to table an official request for a special committee to investigat­e allegation­s that Defense Minister Panos Kammenos pressured Makis Yiannousak­is – serving a life sentence over the so-called Noor 1 case involving a huge shipment of heroin intercepte­d in Greece in 2014 – to implicate shipowner Vangelis Marinakis in the case. Meanwhile, Marinakis, who is also the owner of Olympiakos soccer club, appeared before a prosecutor yesterday as part of an ongoing probe into the allegation. Marinakis reportedly confirmed the claims made by Yiannousak­is and filed lawsuits against all those who allegedly pressured him.
