A sum of money was found in the vehicle1.5 million euros– as well as quantity of drugs.

In court, the accused justified the money found in his possession as fees he had from romantic dates, saying that “since 2012 I started doing this work”.

He also said that he became a drug user in order to cope with the dates and that he is now addicted.

“I’m fine… I’ve reached the finish line. I became greedy with money. I wanted to fill the bags. I had dreams about singing and football. When I collected money I did not give it to the family. I was obsessed, I wanted to collect,” he said.

When questioned about the unusually large amount he had collected, the defendant replied:

“I don’t know how he is with women, but with gay men, because they want secrecy, they are also well-known faces from television, he has a lot of money…” .
