ATHENS - The Greek Orthodox Church said Friday it has launched an internal investigation into its humanitarian branch, Solidarity, amid reports that millions of euros from the NGO's coffers have gone missing.
The Greek foreign ministry is asking to be reimbursed $8.6 million that Solidarity received for a program it never ran, Father Timotheos, a spokesman for the archbishop of Athens, told AFP.
The Church's governing Holy Synod has chosen a special commission of three bishops to carry out the investigation, a statement issued by the Church said.
