Kathimerini je primijetio: "Za Grke opterećene 18-mjesečnim kresanjem plaća, povećanjima poreza i srezanim penzijama, uz očekivanje dodatnih mjera, taj slučaj predstavljao je simbol bliskog odnosa između privilegiranih i sudova, koji pokazuju popustljivost prema onima s novcem i vezama."
Observed Kathimerini, "To Greeks beleaguered by 18 months of pay cuts and tax hikes and slashed pensions, and facing the prospect of more, the case was a symbol of the cozy relationship between the privileged and the courts, which have shown leniency to the moneyed and the connected."
