The truth
The truth is the specific captain had previous problems with the airline always being too ''sensitive'' with hypothetical problems he could only found even when the engineers prove him he was wrong,and while he had the chance to report what he believed was wrong with the airplane at cyprus,he didhnt do that because another pilot would flew it and he wouldhnt win anything.
So he decided to take the airplane in Uk and report the problem there where a greater impact would take place in the airline.
The specific guy took a month for holidays in summer claiming family problems,and he went to australia having fun while the rest pilots of the airline were working non-stop to cover his position...
In this case my friends you can see who is right...
