Investigation into Giorgos Mazonakis death expands

Overview

The investigation into the death of singer Giorgos Mazonakis, who died on September 9, 2026, following a cardiac arrest during a plasma exchange procedure at a Kolonaki clinic, has expanded to include allegations of malpractice, misconduct, and financial crimes. Doctors Ioanna Gaka and Ilias Theodoropoulos remain in custody facing upgraded charges of manslaughter with possible intent through omission.

Judicial authorities have requested to lift communication privacy for all connected individuals to recover digital messages from platforms like Viber and WhatsApp. Intercepted communications include messages from Mazonakis expressing surprise at being charged between 3,000 and 6,000 euros for treatments, and a message from a hypnotist, Nassos Komianos, stating he would ‘squeeze’ the singer during an appointment. Testimonies from a nurse indicate the doctor requested staff ‘maintain a common line’, and that neither doctor accompanied the singer to the hospital during the emergency.

Financial scrutiny has intensified following the freezing of all assets belonging to the doctors, including a bank safe deposit box. Investigators are probing two previously inactive Lithuanian bank accounts, despite one doctor previously declaring no foreign holdings. Authorities are also examining an NGO allegedly established by the 58-year-old doctor for suspicious transactions. One doctor faces alleged public debts exceeding 100,000 euros.

Forensic experts are awaiting immunohistochemical staining results to determine the exact mechanism and timing of damage to the singer’s myocardium. Toxicology reports previously identified a combination of propofol and midazolam in the blood.
