“Today I stand alone against this system, which has the entire machinery of the state at its disposal. My weak point is my financial resources; this is where they’re trying to crush me and destroy me. That is why I am turning to you and asking for financial support.” Makarios Drousiotis
Makarios Drousiotis finds himself in a dire financial situation; who is now forced to cover the costs of a two-pronged legal battle; following his referral to the Criminal Court for the Sandy case, where he faces 80 charges for publishing false news, the Central Criminal Investigation Division has opened a second criminal case against him, this time for a personal data breach related to the “State Mafia.”
“These prosecutions against me are vindictive. They are intended to punish me for my revelations in the ‘State Mafia’ case and to undermine my credibility as a key witness in the criminal investigation that has been launched.” Makarios Drousiotis
As the police clarify, the second criminal investigation is not related to the findings of the Independent Anti-Corruption Authority regarding the “State Mafia” case, for which criminal investigators have already been appointed, but was launched following a complaint filed by a specific individual.
