What is happening

What the sources report

Panagiotis Theodoridis described to ERT his experience with the NGO "Paidiki Chara", as the family was collecting money for treatment of the child in Saint Petersburg.[1]

As he said, the case began in June 2020, when the vice-president of the NGO approached him.[2]

The first meeting with the head of the organisation took place around 10 September in Thessaloniki, at a café.[1]

On 16 October he found that the fundraising had been stopped, although 42,000 euros had been collected.[2]

According to the complaint, Konstantinos Firinidis proposed presenting four transfers of 12,500 euros, so as to appear that the fundraising was completed with 95,000 euros.[2]
