Annie Alexui will not go back to Cyprus. She needs official requests from Russia. Alexui says she has political asylum in Russia. She said this in a TV interview. Her words make the investigation harder. They also suggest links between criminals and a mayor.
Alexui has been online for years. She feels safe in Russia. She trusts Russian people to help her. Some people in Cyprus are looking for her. So, she will not talk to Cyprus police on the phone.
She will only talk in Russia. Russian police must be there. This is not like last month. Then, police wanted to arrest her. Alexui shared her phone number. She is sad she did this.
Alexui also spoke about Mayor Phedonos. She said he is a rapist. She has information about bad things. She knows people in Cyprus prisons.
She recorded talks. These were with people doing bad things. But she did not know them well. She does not trust Cyprus courts. So, she will stay in Russia. She thinks she will not have a fair trial.
Alexui's plan is clear. She uses her situation. She thinks police are looking for show. She thinks they know where she is.
Her reason is personal. She will work online. She will do this until her mother dies. She might stop talking if bad people are caught.
Alexui's actions are important. Cyprus police are watching. Her Russian asylum claim causes talk. People talk about crime and laws. Cyprus police want her. Her trust in Russia is complex. This will be watched closely.
