They do not end what is released on the OPECEPE case. SKAI revealed in its central news release some important points from the deposition of K. Panos Theodoropoulos who served Director of the Organization’s Technical Auditto European prosecutors.

According to the SKAI journalist, Yiannis Souliotischaracteristic of the deposition of the OPECEPE Director is a case of Crete that testifies to the way the system worked.

Delays in specific VAT ID of Crete

As Mr. Theodoropoulos revealed in his testimony, following the administration of Gregory Varra, who was forced to resign in late 2020 there was a new circular that said that to check on the property contracts of the pasture that was subsidized. It is only enough to control E9 and not strong documents of legal occupation as the previous circular demanded.

As he testified, when in October 2020 he was instructed Audit 43 VET of Crete factor Under the nickname “FRAGES”, the start of this check has been delayed for many months in order to mediate the circular, to make a change to the most lenient of the control procedure and to be able to make the specific factor of Crete with E9 to justify the unjustified.

Change of administration to change certificates

Mr. Theodoropoulos also said that often the audited persons whose applications were initially rejected or even had to return money that had been indefinitely received were expecting the OPEKEPE administration to change first and then re -ordering a check which was finally justified.

He also testified that when he wanted to proceed with a geospatial inspection by drawing data from the Land Registry, he was told to proceed normally to payments because the data recorded in the Land Registry were not definitive and therefore had no legal effect.

Typical checks

According to Mr. Theodoropoulos The checks carried out were typical in order to give the impression that audit procedures are implemented, which in fact did not happen.
