An employee of the Single Social Security Entity (EFKA) accused of bribery was suspended from duties on Thursday.
EFKA’s administration announced that it condemns “the phenomenon of corruption in the strongest possible terms” and that it will undertake disciplinary action against the employee.
The 49-year-old EFKA employee is accused of pressuring a 56-year-old woman to pay 4,000 euros in order to secure a disability allowance for her mother.
On Tuesday, the EFKA employee was arrested by authorities as she was receiving the bribe.
