Varoufakis’ Gate: the Parliament will decide if to indict him or not

As Varoufakis enjoys “Parliamentary immunity” the Athens prosecutor cannot investigate the claims but has to transfer the lawsuits to the Parliament Speaker. It will be up to a Parliamentary Committee to investigate the issue and if the findings turn against the ex FinMin, 299 MPs will have to vote in order to lift his “immunity”, indict him and open the way for a special court.
