Antonis Dimitriou [Criminal Lawyer]: The video that exposed Cyprus and the limits of its criminal exploitation [audio]

Criminal lawyer Antonis Dimitriou analyzed the criminal implications of the video that caused a political uproar in Cyprus, speaking on Politis Radio. He emphasized that the use of the video depends on whether it can be legally used in court, meaning whether the creators and the complete material are identified. Illegal wiretapping is a criminal offense, but this does not exclude the use of the material as evidence in the event of the commission of more serious crimes. Mr. Dimitriou stated that the criminal investigator will examine possible violations of the law, such as influence, restrictive terms, and international sanctions, and that if offenses are found, they must be prosecuted. He pointed out that the lack of complete material makes the investigation problematic.
