“Peloponnisos” highlighted yesterday a very “delicate” incident that occurred on Friday night in a Markatos refreshment bar, with an assistant professor of the University of Patras and a doctor as the protagonists.
The academic officer photographed a 15-year-old student who was sitting across from him with her father and a friend of his, who, however, did not perceive the scene. However, the photo shoot caught the attention of three young patrons who asked the professor to speak up because he was “arbitrary”.
Then, the father realized what had happened and listened and thus the Police were notified and all the protagonists were at the Security, where the parent testified and sued the teacher, for breach of personal data.
The case went to court the next day, so the prosecutor of Patras released the accused, however, he ordered a preliminary examination, while at the same time an investigation by the Athens Forensic Laboratories is expected on his confiscated mobile phone. From this critical examination, it will be seen if there are only the photos “taken” by the university student, or if there are also others, possibly referring to pedophilia! In other words, an answer will be given as to whether we are facing a pedophilia scandal or whether the professor acted as the protector of a minor child!
The girl’s father, although efforts were made to close the matter out of court, refused, categorically stressing that he wants a full investigation of the case to clarify what the perpetrator’s real intentions were.
It is claimed by the accused’s environment that “he took a photo of the minor girl because he saw her sitting with two middle-aged men and the fact surprised him and made him suspicious, since he did not even imagine that she was the daughter of one of them”.
Police sources report to “P” that the specific professor has not previously concerned the Prosecuting Authorities for his involvement in serious similar crimes.
* The lawyer who took on Professor Kostas Kremmidas stated to “P”: “If the reports corresponded to reality, the development would be criminal prosecution and referral of the culprit to the competent courts. However, the lack of criminal prosecution proves that there was a misunderstanding that resulted in the suffering of those involved.”

University Professor Embroiled in Controversy After Taking Photo of Minor in Refreshment Bar
A shocking incident in a Markatos refreshment bar last Friday night has sparked outrage and raised questions about the intentions of an assistant professor from the University of Patras. According to Greek news outlet “Peloponnisos,” the academic officer was caught taking a photo of a 15-year-old student sitting with her father and a friend, without their knowledge or consent.
The incident came to light when three young patrons noticed the professor’s actions and confronted him, leading to the involvement of the police and a subsequent investigation. The girl’s father, who was unaware of the photo being taken, was alerted by the commotion and proceeded to report the incident to the authorities.
The police took swift action, and the professor was brought in for questioning. During the investigation, his mobile phone was confiscated, and a preliminary examination was ordered. The Athens Forensic Laboratories are currently examining the phone to determine if there are any other incriminating photos or evidence that could suggest pedophilia.
The girl’s father has refused to settle the matter out of court, insisting on a full investigation to uncover the professor’s true intentions. According to sources close to the accused, the professor claimed that he took the photo because he was surprised to see the minor girl sitting with two middle-aged men, and his actions were motivated by a desire to protect her.
However, this explanation has been met with skepticism, and the investigation is ongoing. The professor’s lawyer has stated that if the reports are true, it would warrant criminal prosecution, but the lack of evidence suggests a misunderstanding that has caused harm to those involved.
This incident raises important questions about privacy, consent, and the protection of minors. It also highlights the need for greater awareness and vigilance in recognizing and reporting suspicious behavior.
The Importance of Consent and Privacy
The taking of someone’s photo without their knowledge or consent is a violation of their privacy and personal boundaries. It is especially concerning when the subject is a minor, as it can lead to feelings of vulnerability and exploitation.
In this digital age, it is essential to recognize the potential risks and consequences of sharing or distributing photos of others without their consent. It is crucial that we educate ourselves and our children about the importance of respecting others’ privacy and obtaining consent before taking or sharing photos.
The Role of Authority Figures in Protecting Minors
This incident also raises questions about the role of authority figures, such as teachers and professors, in protecting minors. It is their responsibility to ensure the safety and well-being of their students, rather than exploiting or violating their trust.
In this case, the professor’s actions have sparked outrage and concern, and it is essential that the investigation is thorough and transparent. The outcome of the case will send a strong message about the importance of accountability and the need for authority figures to prioritize the protection of minors.
Conclusion
The incident in the Markatos refreshment bar has sparked a critical conversation about privacy, consent, and the protection of minors. It is essential that we prioritize the safety and well-being of our children and hold accountable those who violate their trust. As the investigation continues, we will be watching closely to see how this case unfolds and what lessons we can learn from it.
