The actor Petros Filippidis is referred to a trial before the MOD for three accusations of serious sexual violence, by decision of the Council of Criminal Courts.

According to the judicial authorities, the accused could repeat the same offenses if he returned to his professional duties, a fact which, according to his pre-trial detention decision, follows from his “long period of activity, from 2008 to 2014, during which is said to be taking advantage of the position of director – charismatic and exercising power, to proceed with acts against sexual dignity to the detriment of its victims “.
