The immunity committee will meet before the beginning of the plenary session on November 16 at 8 a.m., SP judge spokeswoman and committee chairwoman Selma Yildirim announced on Thursday.
This could put the extradition on November 18 on the agenda of the National Council, said Yildirim, who hopes that the “System Kurz” will be cleared up quickly. After the immunity committee has cleared the way, extradition must be voted on in plenary. The TP had already made it clear repeatedly that she supported the request.
The Turks said on Thursday “very confident that the matter will soon be cleared up”. The “wrong accusations” against Kurz could be “quickly” refuted. The proceedings, like those against ex-finance minister Hartwig Lger (VP) or the suspended justice section head Christian Pilnacek, would end with suspension or acquittal, according to a statement.
Immediately after he was sworn in as club chairman, the WKStA submitted an extradition request to parliament. The former head of government is being investigated for breach of trust and corruption in the new advertising affair. There are investigations into false testimony in the U-Committee. Kurz vehemently denies all allegations.
