I have not received a case file, so I am in a difficult position, I cannot refer to information, but I know that he has confessed, said the lawyer of 18-year-old Apostolos Lytras to SKAI and on the show Today.

“What he said to me is that I wasn’t the only one who threw a flare at the policeman. Two flares fell. We don’t know if the police officer was injured by the flare that the 18-year-old threw,” added Mr. Lytras.

He also said that the 18-year-old is in shock, he could not speak for the first five minutes.

And he and the family kept asking about the policeman and his health, Mr. Lytras added.

According to him, the 18-year-old is not an organized fan, does not belong to an association and has never been arrested. “He was found there as many other people were found, those who were found were not involved simply because they were there” he added.

According to Mr. Lytra, “apparently someone had passed the flares etc. inside the stadium or outside the stadium and at the urging of some, some people got involved in it”.

“The 18-year-old had gone to a match before, but he had never been involved in any incidents, he has no criminal history,” added his lawyer and added that the parents only knew that he was going to the stadium.
