A 23-year-old man was sentenced to a total prison sentence of 19 months, with a 3-year suspension, by the Three-member Criminal Court of Thessaloniki, because he distributed obscene photos and videos of a 17-year-old girl, having previously gained access to her personal account on a social network.

The court found him guilty of accessing child pornography material through information systems, as well as possession and distribution of this material, while recognizing the mitigating factor of post-adolescent age.

The case took place in September 2018 in Thessaloniki, with Mraccused of gaining access to the victim’s account, through his friends, who had “hacked” him. According to the case file, he trafficked over 10 photos and two videos with personal moments of the student at the time.

Four of his co-accused, who were minors at the time of the act, were referred to the competent juvenile court for the same case.

The sufferer, 22 years old today, described the nightmare she lives to this day, emphasizing that she was affected both physically and mentally, while this material – according to her – was even trafficked to people in his environment. Her friend reported that because of this case, the sufferer became antisocial, characterizing what she went through and is going through as terrifying. “He wanted to kill himself, he wasn’t eating» he testified characteristically.

For his part, the 23-year-old only admitted to possessing the material when his friend sent it to him, while apologizing to the young victim.
