The three-member Court of Criminal Appeals of Ioannina imposed a five-year suspended prison sentence, under the conditions of a ban on leaving the country and three years of supervision by a social welfare officer of her place of residence, on former Corfu First District Prosecutor Maria Tataki, who was found guilty of abuse of power per se and for embezzlement of public documents per se.


This is the well-known case with the disappearance of thousands of case files, some of which were found in her friend’s warehouse in the village of Garouna, Corfu, while others were found in the house where she lived. The result was the statute of limitations for misdemeanors, felonies and misdemeanors. The case was revealed in 2019 by the then appeals prosecutor of Corfu and her former supervisor, Vasiliki Christouli, after a systematic investigation, following complaints that reached her office.
Mrs. Tataki appealed the decision, arguing that the facts of the case were not correctly assessed by the Court of First Instance and she was declared guilty of acts she did not commit.
The three-member Court of Criminal Appeals of Ioannina found the former deputy head of the Secretariat of the Prosecutor’s Office, who was accused of complicity in the criminal act, innocent.
Maria Tataki, by unanimous decision of the Plenary of the Supreme Court on April 14, 2022, was dismissed from the House without the right to work.
