Mr. Loizidis, You Are Crossing the Line – Let Fytiris Fight Organized Crime

The author strongly criticizes Nikos Loizidis, president of the 'Equality' police union branch, accusing him of undermining the efforts of Justice Minister Kostas Fytiris in the fight against organized crime. The author believes that Loizidis, with his provocative and loud behavior, is turning public dialogue into a personal battleground, exposing the Police and undermining public trust. While acknowledging that Loizidis rightly criticized past failures of Police leadership and the Ministry of Justice, the author argues that his current behavior hinders effective crime control. Instead of assisting Fytiris' work, Loizidis is attempting to undermine it, even speaking of a "junta", creating a climate of division and instability. The author urges him to stop his personal agenda and allow Fytiris to fight organized crime effectively, as the country needs unity against the underworld. The criticism focuses on the lack of institutional responsibility and the promotion of toxicity in public discourse.
