Police Chief Arnaoutis declines questions following statement on the Sandy case

The Chief of Police, Mr. Arnaoutis, held a brief press conference lasting approximately two minutes regarding the high-profile 'Sandy case'. During the session, he stated that the briefing was held out of respect for the role of journalists and the public's demand for transparency. However, he concluded his remarks without accepting any questions from the press. The incident has drawn criticism from members of the media, including journalist Fanis Makridis, who argued that the refusal to engage in a Q&A session undermines democratic transparency. Critics, including the publication Philenews, suggest that this behavior reflects a broader trend of limited official communication within the police force. The Union of Journalists has been called upon to review the matter. The police administration has not yet provided further commentary on the criticism of their communication practices.
