(Kathimerini) The Justice Ministry on Thursday responded to a ruling against Greece by the European Court of Human Rights over an inheritance dispute, saying the case predates a change in laws adopted in 2018.
“Those who try to distort the European court’s ruling in the above case are the same people who, for years, have not taken any measures to protect the rights of members of the Muslim minority of Thrace,” the ministry said in a statement.
On Wednesday, the court ruled that Greece violated the European Convention on Human Rights by applying Sharia law in the case of Chatitze Molla Sali, a Muslim woman from northern Greece.
