The first of two professional fishermen accused in the intentional homicide of Sifis Valyrakis has testified before the Mixed Jury Court, emphatically denying any involvement in his death. The defendant asserted both he and his brother had no role in the fatal incident. He maintains his innocence, offering no admission of guilt during his deposition. This marks a key moment in the high-profile case, which has garnered significant public attention in Greece. The trial continues with further testimonies expected from both defendants and witnesses. The prosecution will now attempt to refute the fisherman’s claims and present evidence linking him to the death of Valyrakis. Further proceedings are scheduled to determine the extent of their alleged involvement.
