The testimony of actor Pavlos Haikalis continues the trial of Petros Filippides in a second instance, who is accused of two rape attempts.

The witness referred to the course of the defendant, who “envied” and their collaboration on the “50-50” television series.

“Peter comes from a school in which discipline was the dominant element. This was a treaty that didn’t like some who wanted a freedom. The name of Peter Filippides and every Petros Filippides creates an attraction for the public. (…) Today things have been very relaxed, that’s not the case. When rehearsals are done we cannot say that they start at 7 pm and the other to come 8. This creates tensions. But these are in the theater“, He said.

President: We are talking about behaviors that may have escaped the subway. Did this be done in your perception?

Haikalis: No he had not escaped the measure. There was a relaxation of morals and anyone could express themselves in an “X” way. But the theater was a big bed, there have been drugs, violent behaviors, vulgar behaviors; fierce fall. But in a place where all this happened and no one was talking suddenly after the 20s we could suddenly hear about rape attempts. There has been a lot in the theater, there was a pervasive freedom. In recent years these have stopped. Why? Because the young actors have another culture. What we say is falling wildly to the other I will say that it is not just for men, it also applies to women. I had received suggestions from women. But if Petros has rape? Not in any case.

Mr. Haikalis testified that the accused He was a man with tensionsbut he had not escaped the measure. ‘At 50 – 50 I had tensions rather than PhilippidesI escaped from fatigue not Filippides, “the witness said, adding that Petros Filippides never made observations in the theater, nor was he shouting.

“Not to think that I am sorry to tell you that I too was out of show because we had a disagreement. This does not mean that Peter is to blame, I had a matter, “said the witness, who said that he did not believe what they are said to have happened.

Haikalis: I do not know the complainants, I have received complaints too and I want to say that when we complain we have to know what we are saying. I don’t think they have done what they say. But only Peter and the complainants know the truth.

Chairman: Has the accused to make or destroy careers?

Haikalis: No one has the power to do so. They are preceded by others. We can only suggest an actor as the protagonists. There is the channel and production. Neither Horn, nor Katrakis, nor Lampetti had never had power. Power is given by the position of someone. Minotis had power, Kourkoulos acquired power when he became director of the National not when he was an actor. Power is in position not in the face. In the theater you can not make a protagonist. Neither the prime minister

Prosecutor: For kisses the intense complained by Mrs Papacharalambous?

Haikalis: I don’t know how he kissed. But it was well known that there was a relationship between them.

Prosecutor: What has been denounced by Mrs. Drosaki?

Haikalis: That is, to any woman who saw Peter, he would say “if you don’t sit down will I destroy you?” It doesn’t make sense. A school consists of a set does not decide on the exams by Philippides.

Prosecutor: The first complainant says she told her she would destroy her …

Haikalis: That is, in the 1500 spectacles of Peter had the power to cut it from everywhere? Sorry my logic does not accept it. (…) I do not know Philippides’ love life but I know it has sugar and this creates some problems in sex life. To try to rape Peter for what reason? I have also read a little psychology. The rapist does not stop if there is no external factor.

Prosecutor: Why denounce him?

Haikalis: For revenge, for jealousyfor latent crisis of feminismfor many reasons. Have you realized that by 2020 we have suddenly bombardment for rape attempts?

Chairman: Have you talked to the accused about these complaints?

Haikalis: Yes and he told me everything was consensual.
