Greeks in Panama Papers to be investigated

Greek financial prosecutors were expected to forward mutual assistance requests to judicial authorities in Panama in the wake of revelations in the Panama Papers regarding Greek administrators of offshore companies in that country.

The requests were expected to be issued in the upcoming days, following an order by chief financial prosecutor Panayiotis Athanasiou.
