[2] Omiros Masouras was born in 1962 in Pano Zodeia, near Morfou, Nicosia District.
[citation needed] Neophytos is famous for supporting various conspiracy theories about antisemitism, COVID-19 and the New World Order.
[3] He supported that Orthodox people should try to avoid electronic identification and that he himself has not received such an ID and will try to delay it as much as he can.
[7] In various ministries and Eastern Orthodox liturgies, Neophytos persuaded people to not wear masks or follow measures against COVID as he supported that they are "satanic" and are not beneficial.
Despite the government's orders to not attend such events at the pandemic, Neophytos violated the orders and normally proceeded with the Palm Sunday event at his church where he was eventually arrested after a police check to see if he was complying with measures.
