Initially, it is noted that the members of the Committee were appointed by lot and the lot was drawn by the Metropolitan of Morphou in the presence of other Synods.

According to information, the metropolitan of Kykkos Nikiforos intervened in the direction of allowing Andreas Pitsillidis to submit his positions in writing, something which he considered an inalienable right of Andreas Pitsillidis. Kykkou Nikiforos is also said to have had contact with the member of the Commission, Metropolitan Tamasos Isaias. It is noted that the metropolitan of Tamasos agreed to the guilt of the theologian, but allegedly disagreed with the sentence of aphorism.

We are informed from the environment of Andreas Pitsillidis that the theologian is intensely dissatisfied with the strict attitude of the Metropolitan of Paphos, George, who also coordinated the work of the Commission.

The impression from the whole behavior of Bishop Karpasia was positive in the sense that he was polite. Besides, the behavior of Bishop Arsinoe is also very good.

Absolute, always according to the environment of the theologian, was Bishop Trimithountos, who indicated to him that he should receive the approval of the Church before making statements.

In addition to the above, some form of communication was made with the Metropolitan of Limassol Athanasios, who, according to information, was in Russia on Friday during the trial.

For his part, the metropolitan of Paphos points out that the aphorism of the theologian is a spiritual reward that can be lifted. This will depend not only on the five-member Committee, which is the only one that has the power to lift the aphorism, but also on the theologian himself, as we have been told.

Paphos Georgios himself stressed that no one is silencing Andreas Pitsillidis. He can say whatever he wants, said George Paphos, who clarified that what the theologian can not do is speak on behalf of the Church.

He insisted on his position on all the issues that arose and clearly stated that he does not recognize the Holy Synod, said Paphos George, who added that since he does not recognize the sacraments, he can not participate in the sacraments of the Church.

The purpose of the sentence was not to punish Mr. Pitsillidis, but to send him a message to do his own introspection and to ask if what he says helps the Church as he claims, added Paphos George. If he differentiates his positions, the Church will treat him with understanding, he added.
