Zacharias Rhetor reports on how Patriarch Paul of Alexandria was involved in a murder.
Acacius was the military officer tasked to protect Zoilus from the hostile population of Alexandria.
Zacharia details: "Ephraim of Antioch was sent to Alexandria, and Abraham Bar Khili [accompanied him]; and, as they passed through Palestine, they took with them a monk named Zoilus.
And they went to Alex[andria and] investigated the action of Paul;and they drove him from his see and enthroned Zoilus, a Synodite, in the city: and in order to protect this man from the violence [of] the people of the city, they appointed Acacius Bar Eshkhofo of Amida tribune of the Romans there.
