Investigation launched into threats against Annita Demetriou and internal police leak
On June 8, 2026, authorities reported an ongoing investigation into threatening emails sent to the President of the House of Representatives and DISY leader, Annita Demetriou. The emails did not contain direct threats but warned of a potential assassination attempt. Police are tracing the source of three messages, with initial findings suggesting they were sent from an email address located abroad. Police Chief Themistos Arnaoutis has ordered an internal investigation to determine if the content of these threats was leaked by police personnel. This leak reportedly caused significant dissatisfaction within the DISY party. To ensure her safety, authorities have implemented both visible and discreet security measures. Ms. Demetriou remains in direct communication with Chief Arnaoutis, and her personal security detail is coordinating closely with law enforcement. Official statements are expected once the investigation is concluded.
