Phaedonos: “I Welcome the Investigation – Nothing Said is True”

The Mayor of Paphos, Phaedonos Phaedonos, responded to publications and information that came to light in recent days, as well as the ex officio investigation launched against him. In an extensive post, Mr. Phaedonos denounces a targeted attack by a “domestic alliance of political and economic entanglement and organized crime”, rejects the allegations made against him and states that he welcomes the investigation of the case. The Mayor states that the accusations are reproductions of old stories and that the attack aims to neutralize him due to his political presence and his named accusations of corruption. He points out that the investigation started following allegations by a woman residing in Russia and that the accusations do not reflect reality. Mr. Phaedonos states that he has a “superior family” and that the difficulties he faces have an impact on his family. Despite the difficulties and the “heavy personal and family cost”, he commits to continuing the effort for purification and to reveal the “circles of corruption, organized crime and black political money”. He expresses his confidence in the citizens and emphasizes that he is determined to remain “present until the end”.
