According to reports, the doctor allegedly claimed during his questioning that it was not he who performed the plasmapheresis on Giorgos Mazonakis, but rather his wife. He reportedly stated that his wife had taken on responsibility for monitoring the singer and was the one who administered the relevant treatments. The doctor’s wife has also appeared at the Athens Security Directorate to give her own statement to authorities and provide her version of events regarding the monitoring and treatment of Giorgos Mazonakis.

According to initial reports, the singer had visited the private clinic in central Athens for a scheduled plasmapheresis treatment.
