Recent legal developments in Greece involve separate investigations and sentencing regarding the sexual abuse of minors. In Larissa, a 52-year-old woman from Volos was sentenced to 15 years in prison by a Mixed Jury Court. She was found guilty of incest, as well as the production, possession, and distribution of child pornography. The defendant admitted to the crimes, citing financial hardship and pressure from a third party, but the court denied mitigating circumstances. The case was uncovered after a citizen found a lost mobile phone containing digital content. Further details revealed the victim, a minor under the age of 12 who suffers from sickle cell anemia, lived in dire conditions without electricity or running water. The victim has since been placed in a care facility. In Chania, Crete, police are investigating a 16-year-old male accused of ~~continuous rape of~~ repeated sexual assault against a 15-year-old girl. The two individuals lived in the same household, though they were not blood relatives: the girl was in foster care and the boy had been adopted. The alleged behavior reportedly began in 2019 with unwanted touching and has allegedly escalated into sexual acts over the last two years. The 16-year-old has been charged with repeated rape. A 54-year-old woman was also arrested during the investigation, though her specific role ~~and exact charges remain~~ remains unclear. Both suspects ~~appeared before a prosecutor and were~~ have been released ~~under restrictions~~ pending trial. Social and welfare services are currently reviewing the living conditions and the family environment of the victim.
