ASSOCIATION OF GREEK CONCIENTIOUS OBJECTORS

URGENT-URGENT-URGENT

TRIAL OF Concientious Objector Lazaros Petromelidis ON APRIL 15nd, 1999

Lazaros Petromelidis was called up to begin his civilian service at Kilkis on January 16, 1999.

But while people of his age and family status (36 years old and father of a child) can perform 4 months of military service -buying of other 8 ones- he was called to perform 39 months of civilian service,

and that's why he refused to present himself for civilian service. He faces trial for draft evation on April 15nd, 1999. (He has also appealed to Council of State asking for 8 months of civilian service and for suspension of his trial until the Council judge his appeal)

We ask u to send e-mails or FAX supporting Lazaros Petromelidis refusal, to the Minister of National Defence (www.mod.gr, e-mail: minister@mod.gr), the Ministry of Foreighn Affairs (www.mfa.gr e-mail: mfa@mfa.gr) and the Greek Prime Minister Mr Simitis (www.primeminister.gr e-mail: mail@primeminister.gr).

You can also visit the official web Page for the Association of Greek Concientious Objectors at http://members.xoom.com/greekCO/Con3.htm where you can find a relevant text, the greek civilian service Law 2510 (in English) and background infos about the situation of Greek concientious objectors in Greece and the reasons many of us refuse the current civilian service.
