Why Harry Maguire’s Greek trial went so fast

However, with regard to a request brought by Harry Maguire's defence for a postponement of the trial, the judges were not very lenient.

In some cases, judges decide to reject such requests for secondary reasons, for example to take advantage of witnesses present in the courtroom who might be absent if the trial takes place a year later, or simply to avoid legal tactics of procrastination.During this first stage of the legal process, and pending the footballer's appeal, his defence team failed to convince the judges.

Ahead of the verdict, the footballer's lawyer, Andreas Anagnostakis, said his client's conduct was justified because the policemen had allegedly attacked him in his"golden leg" and told him"your career is over".According to the prosecution, the attempted bribery charge involved Harry Maguire asking whether he could pay a fine to be released from police custody.

Whether you like Harry/MU or not, the speed of the trial cannot be in the interests of justice and they are part of the EU.

Very informative article.

After being found guilty he should be banned by the Premier league for at least 10 matches just like they did to John Terry who was found NOT guilty fairness must be seen to exist

Manchester United have made a statement saying because Maguire has appealed he has no longer a criminal record and is innocent until the retrial. Does this also apply to the 3 men that have appealed their conviction in murdering PC Andrew Harper?

Money or fame maybe!!

Greece lightning?

Because he was in Greece and therefore subject to their judicial process. Which seems to be an awful lot more efficient than ours

So basically you hide for 48 hours when in Greece?

It's far more likely that Greek police who are full of corruption wanted a nice payout for some bullshit incident, he refused to comply so they switched it back on him and this is the result.

Everyone’s wrong we are right what a joke we are becoming! This little England mentality has to stop we are becoming a joke

Under EU law ECHR Article 6, he had a right to a fair trial. By denying the defence the time to prepare it would appear the local court failed to comply with EU law. The Appeal will decide. Until then he is innocent. End of.

Because it was a sham, to prevent his defence team from being able to prepare and ultimately so they could try and get money out of him

He was given a chance to get out of there with a suspended sentence. I think he's heading for time now. Bribery and assault are serious.

Because he's white and rich.

Doesn’t do well with anything done at speed does Harry.

Because he was guilty.

Corruption ?

A Manchester United spokesman insisted their skipper now has no conviction or criminal record… If you punch a cop then try to bribe him to let you go whilst telling them that you are filthy rich does not entitle you to a retrial, it would serve him right if he gets time inside for time wasting.
