Spartans leader Vasilis Stigkas and two more MPs were expelled after the court accepted voter complaints that the real leader of the party was Ilias Kasidiaris, the jailed former spokesman of neo-Nazi party Golden Dawn.
The empty seats will not be redistributed among other parties and runners-up are also not allowed to take over the seats of the ousted MPs, the court said.
Kasidiaris, an admirer of the Third Reich, had publicly endorsed the Spartans in 2023 national elections.
The ruling New Democracy party and the PASOK socialists had filed complaints at the Supreme Court, arguing that Kasidiaris is the “real” leader of the Spartans.
Several Spartan lawmakers defected from the party after the prosecutions were announced.
Kasidiaris is serving a 13-year prison sentence with other leading members of Golden Dawn over crimes including the 2013 murder of an anti-fascist rapper.
