Allegations of Investigation Against Cypriot MEP Pheidippos Panagiotou – His Response

Cypriot MEP Pheidippos Panagiotou stated he is unaware of any investigation against him by the European Public Prosecutor's Office, regarding allegations of potential misappropriation of European funds. He commented on related publications, stating that he has not received official information. He also pledged to publish a response via video on social media in the coming days. The allegations, submitted to the Anti-Corruption Authority two months ago, concern the rental of a villa in Limassol, which the MEP is allegedly using as an office and holiday home, at a monthly cost of around 5-6 thousand euros, with parties also taking place on the premises. The European Public Prosecutor's Office, following its standard practice, does not comment on publications regarding ongoing investigations.
