Greece: Influencer jailed over allegations of exploiting minors

A 33-year-old influencer and adult film actor has been remanded in custody in Greece following allegations of serious crimes involving minors. The individual faces charges including human trafficking of minors, abduction, child pornography, and pimping.

The investigation was launched after the mother of a 16-year-old girl filed a complaint. Police findings indicate the suspect used his own mobile number in online advertisements that featured photos of underage girls. In one instance, he allegedly facilitated four meetings with a 16-year-old, charging 150 euros per appointment while providing the minor with food and small amounts of pocket money.

In another case, the suspect reportedly contacted a different 16-year-old via Viber, offering to arrange sexual encounters with men for fees ranging from 120 to 150 euros. The suspect has denied the allegations, claiming he believed the girls involved were adults. Authorities noted that the individual maintained a high-profile social media presence, showcasing a luxury lifestyle with high-end vehicles.
