Giorgos Mazonakis death investigation: New testimonies and phone data scrutiny

The judicial investigation into the death of singer Giorgos Mazonakis is intensifying as new testimonies and evidence emerge. Two doctors, a 56-year-old woman and her 58-year-old husband, remain in custody facing charges of manslaughter. The defense strategies of the two accused have diverged; the female doctor is seeking to defend her actions as compliant with protocols, while her husband claims he had no involvement and was not present during the singer's appointment.

A nurse has testified that the female doctor administered methanol to Mazonakis and requested an antidote, a claim the doctor denies. Meanwhile, investigators are lifting the privacy of communications for six mobile phones to trace contacts made around the time of the incident. An EKAB rescuer testified that the singer's heart rhythm was non-responsive to defibrillation during resuscitation efforts.

Technical delays have also surfaced, as histological examinations were stalled due to an expired contract with a pathologist. The Mazonakis family has expressed their profound grief through legal representatives, thanking the public for their support while monitoring the ongoing legal proceedings.
