Greek MEP Eva Kaili was released from prison on Wednesday by order of Belgian prosecutor Michel Claise following a detention of over four months, said her Belgian lawyer Sven Mary.
The former European Parliament vice-president will be placed under house arrest, wearing an electronic tracking bracelet.
Her Greek lawyer, Michalis Dimitrakopoulos, stated that “Eva Kaili is leaving prison with her head held high and with dignity, she did not confess to crimes she did not commit, and she will fight for her innocence until the end.”
Kaili was arrested and charged in early December 2022 by Belgian prosecutors, who are investigating a case of corruption and money laundering within the European Parliament.
