The 29-year-old man who shot dead his ex-wife’s 75-year-old father in Astrochory last Thursday afternoon was sentenced to pre-trial detention after his confession to an investigator. Arthas. The alleged perpetrator is charged with attempted murder and illegal possession and use of weapons.

His stay with the investigator lasted 2.5 hours. He reportedly appeared remorseful and claimed he had no intention of killing his father-in-law. It all happened in the courtyard of his ex-wife’s family home, in front of their two-year-old child, last Thursday in Astrochori, Arta. After shooting his father-in-law four times, the 29-year-old man fled in his car. Two days later, he called from Daphnula in Evrytania to the Arta police to turn himself in.

Alexis Kugia’s law firm said in a statement that it is taking over the 29-year-old man’s case. The announcement was made shortly before the accused was taken to the investigator, at 15:00. Alexis Kujia’s office alleges that the crime was committed under a “boiling mental rush” while noting, among other things, that the alleged perpetrator denies attempted murder of his ex-wife.

A lawyer for 36-year-old ex-husband 29-year-old Dimitris Lambrakis filed a statement in support of the prosecution and complained of her mistreatment by the perpetrator when he tried to strangle her in late June. Then the woman proceeded to the divorce process, which was completed in early August.
