In absolute denial of the charges on which he was called as a suspect in specific crimes, Father Antonios her Ark of Peaceby filing a multi-page memorandum through their lawyers. According to reportsthe memo (about 100 pages long) attempts to refute the allegations, that is, to say that he sexually molested two children, the food of the ark, and that he was responsible (moral guilt) for the alleged physical punishment of children who were housed in Ark Ark’s facilities from time to time .

In a memorandum he submitted yesterday to the prosecutor’s office, he called the allegations “defiantly and deliberately false.”

According to the memorandum, allegations of sexual harassment against two minors (complaints were received from a 19-year-old today and a 15-year-old teenager) are characterized as false, “demonstratively and knowingly false.” and self-refuting”, and “obvious tricks” are attributed to them. “In view of obvious considerations,” the memorandum says verbatim, “after 25 years of successful work, two complaints were filed (highlighted by the number 2) against the KIVOTOS administration, which were uncritically received only by individual bodies, departments and the media. Two complaints are pointedly and deliberately false and self-refuting. In fact, the next one “copied” the stupidities and groundless incidents of the previous one (!!!)”. These complaints, according to the position expressed by Father Antonios in his memorandum, were the basis for drawing up vaguely, as he emphasizes, “indictments”, without even a more specific description of the required circumstances (method, time, method), despite their obvious contradiction.

The case will be transferred to criminal prosecution if accepted by the prosecution authorities, while it is expected – if such a decision is made – that a multi-stage verification of complaints already filed will follow.
