First Lady's 'Lawyer' Criticizes Auditor General's Report

The Chairman of the House Control Committee, Zacharias Koulias, has been accused of defending the First Lady, Filippa Karsera, regarding the Auditor General's report on the Independent Social Support Agency. Mr. Koulias accused the Auditor General of overstepping his authority for noting increased contributions from companies with state ties during the period they secured public contracts. This criticism contrasts with Mr. Koulias's previous stance, where he and other MPs praised similar reports from the former Auditor General, Odysseus Michaelides. This raises questions about his impartiality and whether his criticism concerns the report's content or the companies affected by it.
