The immigrant from Bangladesh, a person particularly loved by the residents of Mytilini, has been working for many years in the outdoor area of ​​a large supermarket, collecting customers’ trolleys and generally taking care of the area. In December 2018, he was attacked by the convicted and now on appeal, because he requested as part of his work not to park his car in the space intended for parking cars of disabled people.

The condemned had taken the remark as an insult, even claiming that he insulted his wife by looking at her. He took a metal crowbar from his car and injured the immigrant by hitting him in the arm. The immigrant was treated at the hospital where he underwent surgery while he was out of work for a long time. In fact, he also stopped working in olive picking, which he did alongside his other job before his injury.

The convicted was unanimously acquitted of the crimes of carrying weapons and using weapons for which he had been convicted at first instance, and by a majority of 4 to 3, his sentence was changed from attempted serious intentional harm to a committed dangerous act.
