A former model who became a priest and 'blessed' citizens with cocaine, shocking details from the scandal in the Greek church, the 46-year-old: Removes spells, cures cancer

New details have been revealed from the scandal in Greece, where a priest serving in the Attica area was caught with cocaine and cannabis, which he hid inside the church, as it turned out that he was part of a criminal gang.

The 46-year-old false priest had been dismissed from the Church of Greece, but continued to present himself sometimes as a priest and sometimes as the "Archbishop of the Old Calendarists."
The accused allegedly confessed to the police that he hid drugs in the church and claimed that he himself was a drug user.

According to Greek media reports, the gang leader spoke about how she approached the 46-year-old and convinced him to cooperate. The police investigation shows that she was responsible for recruiting members of the criminal organization and providing full instructions to members regarding the trafficking and illegal transportation of migrants.
In fact, speaking to MEGA television, a resident of the area said that the 46-year-old said that he 'removed witchcraft and cured cancer', leading believers into another trap and thus making money.
"From the beginning, we noticed something was wrong with it. How did they take a space and turn it into a church? They were selling things that monasteries usually sell. I saw that the priest was a former model, then he became a chef and had a YouTube channel. They cooked here, the priests bought potatoes from the local market, he had some people who distributed holiday cards and helped. In the first communication I had with him, he cursed me. Because we told him to turn down the speakers and he got angry. In the afternoons he would say: 'Come, let me remove your spells and cure cancer patients,'" the citizen recounts.
Meanwhile, during the course of the investigation, conversations between the priest in question and other members of the gang were also discovered.
In their conversations with each other, network members "christened" drugs as "candle" and "spray" for cocaine, while they used the words "coffee" and "pasta" for cannabis.
The same report states that to the police officers who arrested him, he declared himself guilty of all charges, however, in front of the investigator, he is expected to change his position and claim to know nothing.
Police investigations are continuing to identify other members of the network, as well as any "customers" who purchased drugs from this particular gang.
