The 51-year-old man from Chania who was accused of raping a 51-year-old woman from Morocco last Friday was released with the agreement of the investigator and prosecutor.

The 51-year-old was imposed the restrictive conditions of presence at the police station twice a month and the ban on leaving the country.

The lawyer of the 51-year-old Dimitris Pantelakis argued in his statements that “my client was released with the agreement of the investigator and prosecutor as the truth of his words was diagnosed. The complainant falsely reported my client to Chania security. There is no charge of rape for us, this is a completely consensual meeting, which for some reason broke down in the end».
