Hilio's declaration

The escape and betrayal of the elites was the most publicized and mass case that had ever happened in the history of any of the human nations. More than one hundred thousand people were arrested, all of them belonging to the dominant and powerful classes. The issue was that the accused were not military but civilians, a court formed by the twelve judges of the Supreme Court should have judged them, the problem was that among the detainees were five of those same judges of the high court.

The suspicions of lack of objectivity of the rest of the judges, their possible corporatism, was something that neither the army nor the population could tolerate. Luckily the case had implications that went far beyond a Hellenic matter alone.
