He doesn’t know exactly when he was born. She only knows that she can no longer bear the life that her father himself forces her to live. A life of poverty, abuse and begging.

The 13-year-old girl is one of six children of a family of immigrants from Bulgaria that lives in Heraklion. He has younger brothers, he has older ones. However, it was the child who made the big decision to raise his stature, ask for help and claim a better and dignified life. It takes guts to do what the little girl did in her desperation and despair. He preferred to wander alone and unprotected in the streets, fasting, in the bitter cold, than to return to his home, close to his violent father, as he describes him.

Shockingly, according to Cretalive sources, that the girl for two days and nights found “shelter” in an old broken car. But how long can he endure so much hardship? Hungry, exposed to cold and danger.

Thus, the 13-year-old made another great decision: to ask for the help of the Police. The officers of the 1st Police Department were really surprised by the case of the minor when she appeared before them and told them her story and that she does not want to return to her home as long as her violent father remains there. The minor reportedly told officers that the 42-year-old has regular violent outbursts against her mother.

Although the child had been absent from home since the afternoon of January 29, there had been no declaration of disappearance from his family. Both the father, who was arrested for exposure, and the mother claim that they were searching on their own, without contacting the Police.

The 42-year-old is expected to be tried tomorrow at the Automatic Three-member Misdemeanor Court of Heraklion and remains in custody. He claims that he has never hit any members of his family. The minor’s mother also reportedly testified in favor of her husband, claiming that he is not violent. He only claimed that sometimes they are forced to beg in order to survive as they do not have any steady work but some daily wage farm jobs.

The little girl is currently being hosted at the pediatric clinic of Venizelei.
