D. Mantzos on the Androulaki case: ‘How much did the Greek prime minister know and since when?’

In an intervention on ERT, the press representative of PASOK-Movement of Change, Dimitris Manzos, pointed out the relentless questions that arise after the resignations of the Secretary of the Prime Minister Grigoris Dimitriadis and the Governor of the EYP until yesterday.

“Mr. Grigoris Dimitriadis, the alter ego of the Prime Minister, his relative and close associate, resigned. The second person was Mr. Panagiotis Kontoleon, for whose eyes the governing majority voted alone to reduce the formal qualifications so that the selection of Mr. . Prime Minister, Mr. Kontoleon, to be placed in this critical position. What was revealed yesterday? That the EYP was monitoring the communications of a Greek MEP in fact – I don’t know how coincidental this is – when an attempt was made to intercept Mr. Androulakis’s mobile phone with the Predator malware.

The EYP belongs to the narrow core of the much-publicized “staff state”, in the office of the Prime Minister and its political head is Mr. Mitsotakis. When the EYP proceeds with surveillance of influential persons, politicians, journalists, the minimum it must do is to inform its political superior.

How much did the Greek prime minister know and since when? This key question will not be answered as the government wants, but as the Law and the Constitution stipulate.”

“This time let Mr. Gerapetritis come to the side of the EYP Commander and tell the whole truth that I didn’t say nine days ago, while yesterday he was looking for Mr. Androulakis by SMS to inform him about something that was known to the Government here and days” answered Mr. Manzos, commenting on the attitude of government officials at the Institutions and Transparency Committee last week.
