In a new statement to the Cyprus Times, “Sandy” makes it clear that she is not seeking preferential treatment and will not accept the attribution of blame to any individual without concrete evidence. At the same time, her side is raising questions about the authenticity and completeness of the conversations.
“I will not leave anyone exposed, nor will I accept the arbitrary attribution of blame to any individual. Criminal liability is personal and cannot be based on assumptions, rumors, or fabricated narratives. I am aware not only of what is being said, but also of what is being left unsaid.”

She states that she is closely monitoring every public statement and every allegation, while appearing determined to exhaust every legal and judicial means to restore the truth.
“I undertake, with full awareness of my responsibility, to see this through to the end. I do not seek preferential treatment. I ask only for what the rule of law demands: truth, evidence, individual accountability, and justice. And I am fully aware that this path may be difficult and long. Nevertheless, I will not give up the fight.”
He does not rule out the possibility that certain messages may have been altered, presented out of context, or even created by someone else.
