An ex officio investigation of the allegations contained in the book by Makarios Drushiotis, will be proceeded by the Independent Authority against Corruption, as the Transparency Commissioner and President of the Authority, Haris Pogiatzis, told RIK's "First Update" programme. In fact, he revealed that there is a second serious complaint of a public scandal before the Authority.
Pogiatzis, referring to his meeting yesterday with the candidate for the Presidency of the Republic, Andreas Mavroyiannis, said that no complaint was made by the latter, but the Anti-Corruption Authority was asked to investigate the allegations.
Second complaint
Another important complaint is before the Independent Anti-Corruption Authority and concerns a scandal in a public service, Charis Poyatzis noted. More specifically, he said it is a scandal involving bids and sums of money
Without going into details, the Transparency Commissioner said a citizen made the complaint to a journalist, who, in turn, approached the Anti-Corruption Authority, with both wishing to remain anonymous. In fact, he added, it appears that the complainant knows the facts very well, as he gives a lot of details
Much is being heard about this public service, Poyatzis added, at the rumour level, however, it remains to be seen if the complainant has now given the beginning of the story. He stressed that there will be announcements from the Authority when developments arise.
For both of the above cases, the head of the Independent Anti-Corruption Authority said that a lot of time is needed to investigate them.
