Mina Karameritou Resigns from Greek TV Channel OPEN

Mina Karameritou OPEN resignation Nikos Stravelakis 10 Pantou

Veteran police reporter Mina Karameritou submitted her resignation from the Greek television station OPEN on 28 July 2024, citing a dispute over her role in the upcoming season of the morning show “10 Pantou” and ongoing tension with co‑host Nikos Stravelakis. She will remain on air until the programme’s season ends on 9 August, after which she is expected to pursue a new project, possibly with the public broadcaster ERT.

The day after her resignation notice, Karameritou made a televised outburst during an OPEN broadcast, demanding that police locate the perpetrator of a dog‑killing incident in the Astros area. She described the case as a “crime” and called for viewers with information to contact authorities. Stravelakis echoed the criticism, labeling the act “shameful.” Channel manager Chrysostomos Panagiotopoulos confirmed the resignation and the 9 August end date.
