Polakis threatens, secretly records Bank of Greece Governor

In an unprecedented move, Alternate Health Minister Pavlos Polakis made public a conversation that he had surreptitiously recorded with Bank of Greece Governor Yannis Stournaras, whom he threatened because the Bank has launched an inquiry into a 100,000 euro loan that was issued to Polakis by (non-systemic) Attica Bank with unusually favourable terms for the borrower.
Stournaras arranged talks with Attica Bank executies to review the case.
In the recorded conversation, Polakis demands that Stournaras also probe the loans of political parties and of other politicians.
Polakis then threatens Stournaras that if he does not follow instructions then Polakis will go to the bank governor's office and not leave until the audits he is demanding are launched.
The transcript of the conversation was first reported by the pro-government Documento newspaper and website of journalist-publisher Kostas Vaxevanis.
