Greek Deputy Civil Protection and Crises Management Minister Nikos Hardalias on Wednesday strenuously refuted an article appearing in the same-day issue of the newspaper ‘Efimerida ton Syntakton’, which claimed that escorts traveling with the Fenerbahce basketball team in October had been allowed to enter Greece at his orders, even though they had symptoms of illness, ANA reports.
Hardalias denounced the report as libel and filed a lawsuit in response, while also filing a report with prosecuting authorities for an investigation into the allegations made so that the reporter and the newspaper’s editors will be required to present any evidence they have for their assertions and so that any other parties involved may be held to account.
