Suspended Paphos Mayor Phedon Phedonos said he is the target of an organized smear effort that “will not go unanswered.”
In a new social‑media post, Phedonos wrote that when one allegation cannot be substantiated, “a new one is invented,” and when facts do not serve certain interests, “there is an attempt to distort them.”
He argued that Paphos is the only municipality in Cyprus with audited accounts through 2024, while most other municipalities still have outstanding audits dating back to 2016. “This is the truth,” he said, adding that everything else is “just noise.”
