• False declaration of ownership of the deceased owners after hereditary rights or in the absence of them.
• false statement of ownership of animal capital.
• Submission of unique applications by beneficiaries without completeness of selection criteria.

“Some cannot and should not be tolerated by some to be consulted by valuable public resources, whether they are national or European. These resources are intended to support the Greek agricultural economy, not for the illegal and unjustified enrichment of some, “the Minister of Citizen Protection said, concluding that” legality, security is our duty, but also our common affair- society. Because, if we want a better future, we can only do it. With our common action, with our interest and concern for our neighbor and our country. “
