As The Unseen is informed, the concern was followed by investigation.
According to a competent source, the leadership of the EDEK conducted the published list of names of 607 and thoroughly investigated the evidence. The results of the multi-day investigation, which were also announced before the EPP Politburo, refute the claims of the "opposition". Of the 607 on the list, only 130 people declared that they are expressed by the declarations and actions of the "Group of Initiative for the Salvation of the EDEK", as reported to us.
According to the same information, more than a third of the 607 stated that they were somehow informed about the views of the "Group of Initiative for the Salvation of the EDEK" and the position to hold a "democratic congress" but never gave their consent to have their name included in this list, never consented to the publication of their name or to its use and do not accept the continued use of their name for the purposes of the "EDEK Salvation Initiative Group", as they have been informed by the leadership.
As The Unseen was informed, 80 people categorically stated that the positions of the "Initiative Group for the Salvation of the EDEK" do not express them, never subscribed to the group's claims and were never asked to have their names included in the said list. Some of them are even considering filing a personal data breach and taking legal action against the representatives of the "Group of Initiative for the Salvation of the EDEK."
The surprise, however, of the findings of the investigation conducted by the EDEK was that 111 of the 607 people are not and have never been members of the EDEK.
Therefore, as the information currently in the possession of the leadership shows, these persons are not 607, but 130.
The same information indicates that the investigation by the EDEK leadership showed that of these 130, the vast majority are related to the leaders of the group. In other words, the relative of the relative...
Also, most of them have publicly stated from time to time that they have not voted for EDEK in the May 2021 parliamentary elections, publicly declared support for candidates of other party formations and even urged EDEK members not to vote for party candidates.
The continuation in the EPP
From the statements of the leaders of the "Initiative Group for the Salvation of the EPP", it is predicted that attempts to cause unrest and a blow to the party's credibility, at a time when developments for the presidential elections are unfolding, will continue. This, at least, is indicated by a competent source who is closely following the developments. In fact, this source notes that on May 26, 2022 during a press conference of the "Group" the slander against the EPP continued. Proof that what was reported is untrue is that RIK issued an apology and removed the relevant report from its website.
The leadership of the EDEK believes that this group is now significantly weakened, especially after the failure of its pursuits through the judicial process. "Besides, the withdrawal of the lawsuit leaves the group exposed," says a competent source, since, as Atheatos wrote, serious questions are raised about the reasons for doing so given that the entire argument of the "Group" is based on the substance of the lawsuit they themselves withdrew: That, according to them, the Congress was illegal and the register was falsified.
