Justice the next step, says the Cultural Association of Kapesovu – 2024-02-21 09:40:42

The Cultural Association of Kapesovou “Alexis Noutsos” is willing to exhaust even the available legal means in order to prevent the use of the Easter School as the headquarters of the Unesco organization that is under establishment, in order to work for the integration of Zagori into the international organization.

After the sharp reaction with the announcement of the above Association, the president of the Cultural Association of Kapesovou, Mrs. Athanasia Vazaka, speaking to BIMA Television on Tuesday evening, stated that the next step is to appeal to the Court, since as it was emphasized in the Association’s announcement, they are being violated articles of the Constitution (article 24 on change of use of cultural heritage monuments and article 109). The purpose of the testator is arbitrarily changed, Mrs. Vazaka pointed out among others, emphasizing that the Cultural Association has on its side the majority of Kapesovites, not only the permanent residents but also many emigrants.

The implementation of the intention to utilize the Paschaleios School for the Unesco offices announced a month ago by the Mayor of Zagori is completely opposed by the members of the Association, to which the Paschaleios is available for the Association’s actions from time to time. According to Mrs. Vazaka, a consultation was sought with the Mayor of Zagori, Mr. G. Soukouvelos, without this being successful.

However, the Mayor of Zagori, speaking to “NA”, stated that this case is not over and that after the next meeting with the Minister of Culture, the Municipality’s plans will be announced definitively. He left room to change the previous announcement, although as he said, only the Municipality is responsible for a building that belongs to it.
