Sophie Michailidou
We remind you that the Supreme Court annulled on appeal the appointment of Ms. Sophie Michailidou in position of Director of the Press and Information Office (GIS) in 2017. The appointment of Ms. Michailidou was annulled at first instance in 2020 by Administrative Court, but the former Attorney General Costas Clerides, decided to appeal the decision. Aliki Stylianou, spokeswoman for the Central Bank and President of the Cyprus Economists' Union, who was also a candidate for the position and excelled in qualifications and experience, had appealed against Ms. Michailidou's appointment.
