Economy Minister George Stathakis and State Minister Alekos Flambouraris have been refered to the assets declaration committee of Greek Parliament’s auditors for further investigation into their wealth statements.

The committee gave the “green light” to the opening of Stathakis accounts. Noteworthy is the fact that something like this has never been asked for from an active minister before.

George Varemenos, head of the Assets Testing Committee in Greek Parliament, said that there were more than the million euros initially missing from Stathakis “assets” for 2011. There were also differences in other accounts as well as undeclared real estate.

For the moment, a government source stressed that there is no reason to expel Stathakis as yet. On his part, the minister gave no comment.

Auditors will also investigate Alekos Flambouraris accounts and will investigate initial statements that concern the years 2013-2014 to ensure if there are legal problems and a conflict of interest concerning the shares that he held in his construction company.
