The 35-year-old claimed that he had a knife on him when the clashes started and then lost it. He was arrested and is already in Nafplion prison serving an earlier outstanding prison sentence of 12 months.

He is expected to be examined by the authorities again in the next few days in order to determine whether he was involved in the deadly injury of the 29-year-old victim, Katsouris.
