Emilianidis: Challenges in Reporting Crimes Due to Publicity
April 22, 2026
Lawyer Achilleas Emilianidis argues that Makarios Drousiotis' post had an electoral purpose. He emphasizes that the handling of the case discourages real victims from coming forward. He points out that public situations can impose additional psychological pressure on those who have suffered abuse. He stresses that while reporting is necessary, it can also be dangerous for victims. He concludes that the current approach may lead to more silence rather than support.
