Court Case of the Platanistasa Priest
March 4, 2025
Father Georgios Kourris from the Archangel Michael Church in Platanistasa appeared in court for the first time due to 20 charges related to unauthorized use of a bell and loudspeakers. His case has been postponed to April 8, as his lawyer had not received witness testimonies. The priest was required to sign a €2,000 bail to remain free. This issue appears to stem from disputes with local residents regarding the bell's operation.
