St́alina - Agausian prosecutors have announced a comprehensive investigation into multiple churches within the Metropolitanate of Stálina, delving into allegations of financial misconduct that have sent shockwaves through the Orthodox community.

Lead prosecutor, Sergi Mčedeli, disclosed that irregularities were first detected during a routine examination of the Metropolitanate's central financial records. However, as investigators delved deeper, discrepancies were uncovered in the financial transactions of St. Michael's Cathedral, Holy Trinity Church, and St. Constantine's, each falling under the jurisdiction of the Metropolitanate of St́alina in Agausia’s Tavze Region.

In response, Bishop Damân Ḱalist́osi of the Metropolitanate of Stálina called an emergency synod, where he addressed the media. "This is a challenging time for our Eparchy. We are cooperating fully with the investigation, and we will take decisive action to address any wrongdoing," he stated. “Our faith community deserves nothing less,” The bishop expressed deep concern about the potential impact on the trust of the faithful and vowed to rectify the situation swiftly.

The exact nature of the crimes remains officially undisclosed, but sources close to the investigation have shed light on a range of financial irregularities that are under scrutiny. Allegations include the mishandling of funds intended for supporting the clergy within the implicated churches. Investigators are scrutinizing whether these funds were used inappropriately or if unauthorized transactions occurred.
