Authorities arrested a person on Thursday who was urging people to abandon their homes before an imminent catastrophic earthquake in Cephalonia, on charges of leaking false information.

It all stared after complaint made by a resident of Argostoli who claimed he had received a call for an impending earthquake, with a specific date and time.

Regional Manager of Ionian Islands Spyros Spyrou, to whom the information on the call was given, immediately informed the police authorities. After police investigation, the owner of the particular phone number, who terrorized the people by giving unsubstantiated information, was arrested outside Cephalonia and is now being interrogated.

Spyrou stated that the case is being investigated, accusing some people for exploiting citizens’ fears and sensitivities.
