Annie Alexui spoke exclusively on the programme “Protoselido” to Andreas Demetropoulos about the cases that have unsettled authorities and the political scene. In the interview, Annie Alexui, responds to allegations that sparked a storm on social media, discusses outstanding arrest warrants against her and explains how she manages threats, attacks and intense pressure.
She notes that many people have experienced situations similar to hers and recognise the truth behind what she describes. She argues that the most troubling aspect of the case is how institutions, state officials and police handle such complaints.
Public complaints and online presence
Annie clarifies that her public accusations did not begin recently. For four to five years, she has spoken openly about what she says she experienced, repeatedly creating online accounts that were later removed. She says the internet became both an outlet and a way to confirm that her experiences were real.
She adds that the wider attention surrounding her case now stems from increased public awareness. In a pointed remark, she thanks the Cyprus Police for what she describes as “huge publicity”, while also referring to journalists who raised questions about her situation before the issue gained momentum.
Arrest warrants and withdrawn complaint
Referring to 13 complaints pending against her and the withdrawal of one complaint by a named individual, Annie says she has complete confidence in her own truth but no trust in Cyprus courts, authorities or institutions. She maintains that she would prevail in a court she considers trustworthy.
She also notes that she and the individual who withdrew the complaint grew up in the same area of Chloraka and says she appreciates the withdrawal.
Wanted list and asylum in Russia
Annie Alexui criticises the police decision to place her on a wanted list, calling it counterproductive. She stresses that she has received asylum in Russia and claims the complaints against her contributed to that decision.
She argues that publicly seeking information about her whereabouts despite widespread awareness of her location undermines the authorities’ position.
Evidence and sources
Responding to criticism that her allegations lack documentation, Annie Alexui insists she has repeated the same claims for years and can support them with testimony and evidence. She says most documents she publishes come from her own research and that new information often emerges after she raises an issue.
She adds that she evaluates testimonies carefully and only publishes claims she considers verified, stating she feels almost certain about the accuracy of the information she releases.
Claims about the mafia and investigations
Addressing suggestions of links to the mafia, prisons or secret services, Annie Alexui acknowledges receiving information from prison sources but rejects claims of criminal connections. She says she has spent significant time researching organised crime activity in Cyprus.
She also refers to the renewed investigation into the killing of Alexis Mavromichalis, stating the situation would end only under specific conditions related to identifying those responsible.
Return to Cyprus and personal safety
Asked whether she would return to Cyprus with guarantees of safety and a fair trial, Annie says she has no trust in any Cypriot institution. She claims the only scenario in which she might return would involve a request from people she trusts in Russia.
She states that years of threats and violence no longer affect her and that she fully cooperates with Russian authorities, passing on any relevant information. She also says communication with Cyprus Police has ended.
Trauma, therapy and life in Russia
Annie Alexui acknowledges lasting psychological trauma and says she continues long-term psychotherapy and hypnotherapy. She describes Russia as a place of healing and says the support she received there proved significant.
Reflecting on loneliness and past relationships, she claims emotional vulnerability was previously used against her. She recounts arriving in Russia without proper clothing and receiving help from a stranger on the plane.
