In detail, Anna Korakaki’s post states:

He is not a fan. Those who really admire and respect my athleticism and my efforts are offended. He is not in love; offended love, which is so beautiful. It is persistent and potentially dangerous. He was watching my every move, my friends and my partner; had become my shadow. I found bouquets everywhere. He was always around me. Despite the recommendations of all of us, even my father, but also the police, to stop all his actions, he continued.

Until, he tried with a friend to enter my apartment when I was alone. I struggle with post-traumatic stress and psychosomatic illnesses. I suffer from insomnia, fatigue, depressive episodes, intense feelings of insecurity, anxiety and generalized anxiety. This is caused by “stalking”.

Trying to stay productive and at an excellent level in sports, exhausted me. My fears intensified when I learned that he had used physical violence against his ex-wife in the past. Early morning 13 July 2021; the climax. He sets fire to and burns my partner’s car completely. All this, five days before I get on the plane to Tokyo.

In the run-up to the Olympics, I was mentally “paralyzed”. Seeing the car ash, I trembled at the thought that it could hurt mine. So, while I was in Japan, spiritually I was in Greece.

I struggled with bad psychology and minimal concentration. The fact that I entered two Olympic finals and finished with two 6th places was a feat for me. Many of you may understand now, because after the games I said in the media: “It is good that people are not strict with the athletes”. Generally do not (criticize). You never know what the other person is going through.

PS 1): The Mixed Jury Court of Kavala sentenced him to 5 years in prison. I thank them warmly, because they did not recognize any mitigating and did not grant inhibitory effect on the appeal. Did they do their best? Unfortunately, under the legal framework, the actual time it will build is frighteningly less than 5 years.

PS 2): The photos are the most “raw” I have posted. This is how I experienced “stalking”.
