ATHENS – Politicians accused secretly by unidentified whistleblowers of taking bribes from the Swiss pharmaceutical company Novartis have filed a court request asking for the identities to be revealed.
Two alleged witnesses code named Kelesi and Maximos Sarafis made unsubstantiated claims against 10 rivals of the then-ruling Radical Left SYRIZA of wrongdoing without having any evidence.
