Paphos Mayor Responds to Allegations Regarding Municipality Finances

Suspended Mayor of Paphos, Phaedonas Phaedonos, responded to allegations regarding the financial statements of the Paphos Municipality. He argued that the Municipality of Paphos is the only one in Cyprus with audited financial statements up to 2024, while most other municipalities have outstanding issues dating back to 2016. Mr. Phaedonos accused certain parties of a coordinated smear campaign, emphasizing that good governance and transparency are fundamental principles of his administration. He stated that the smear attempt will not go unanswered, both institutionally and politically. The case concerns investigations being conducted against him on various issues.
