Papasavvas missing file investigation to be examined this week

ATTORNEY-general Petros Clerides is to begin an investigation next week into Deputy Attorney-General Akis Papasavvas’ missing medical file, which includes information about his €17,000 dental work.

Clerides’ investigation follows the completion of a police report into the missing paperwork this week, which allegedly identifies two individuals who may have played a part in hiding the paperwork which detailed Papasavvas’ eligibility for the costly implant procedure.

According to the daily Philelefteros, police investigators who were on the case carried out investigations at the Ministry of Health where they examined phone records and other stored data.

The police also searched an unnamed person’s home but did not find anything suspicious. However, the paper claims that the police know what happened to the missing file, and have included grounds for further investigation in their repo
