Investigation Launched into Alleged Misuse of Funds by Kalos Chorio Community Council and School Board

Following complaints regarding unjustified financial debts demanded by the Kalos Chorio Orainis Community Council, a criminal investigation is underway into the misuse of funds by both the Council's fund and the School Board. The investigation was launched following a report by MP Alexandra Attalidou. The Ministry of Interior confirmed that the Community Council was requested to submit financial statements for audit and complied, while also filing a complaint with the Police regarding the misuse. The audit of the financial statements is underway by the Auditor General of the Republic. The Council has re-examined and resubmitted financial statements for the years 2023 and 2024, while regarding the imposed taxes, these are checked for legality by the Office of the District Officer of Nicosia. Tax increases are a matter of the Council's economic policy and are not subject to approval, as long as they do not exceed the legal limits. The District Officer's Office examines objections to taxes and makes revisions or deletions of amounts where errors or omissions are found.
