Former Fisheries Director Requests Corruption Authority to Revise Statement

The former director of the Fisheries Department, Loizos Loizidis, sent a letter to the Anti-Corruption Authority requesting a revision of its statement dated December 19, 2025. Mr. Loizidis believes the statement, which accuses him of abuse of power and conspiracy, violates his constitutional rights and damages his professional reputation. The case concerns the 'The Land of Dreams' development in Trimiklini, which operates without permits. The Authority has referred the file to the Attorney General and recommended criminal charges against Mr. Loizidis, as well as former Minister of Agriculture Nikos Kougialis and former Director of the Department of Environment Kostas Chatzipanagiotou.
