I'm under no illusions that I got him to drop his guard, or forget his status as spokesman for the House of
Pierides -- though he does have impeccable manners.
Pierides, of Lullington Garth, north London, stood in the dock at the Old Bailey dressed in a grey suit and pale blue tie and spoke only to confirm his name.
Villagers said Mr
Pierides was involved in a number of businesses, including an independent ambulance and health service.

The attorney pointed out also what he described as disagreements between the testimonies of five prosecution witnesses and Alkis
Pierides, a Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) official who was also brought on to testify against the defendants.
Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) executive Alkis
Pierides was cross-examined by defence lawyer Polis Poliviou on Monday, during the hearing of the trial of five former Bank of Cyprus top officials, as well as the lender itself, on charges of conspiracy to manipulate the market and mislead investors.
THE probe by the Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) against former Bank of Cyprus officials Andreas Eliades and Theodoros Aristodemou kick-started by allegations made by Yiannis Kypris, also a former BoC official, to the commission's chairwoman Demetra Kalogirou, prosecution witness Alkis
Pierides told the court on Thursday.
Despite numerous objections by defence lawyers, Wednesday's hearing at the trial of five former Bank of Cyprus officials, as well as the lender itself, for allegedly manipulating the market and misleading investors in 2012, was allowed to proceed with the questioning of Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) official Alkis
Pierides.
