Authorities are examining documentary video footage of the kidnapping of the 27-year-old who was found in advanced decomposition in a ravine in the Nea Peramos area. The murder of the 27-year-old remains shrouded in mystery. According to journalistic sources from parapolitika.gr, the victim was shot a total of 10 times. As revealed, this man fell victim to kidnapping several days earlier outside his partner’s home in Elefsina.
Murder of 27-year-old in Nea Peramos: Timeline of his abduction
More specifically, in the documentary video from the moment of the 27-year-old’s abduction, he appears to be walking carelessly, wearing a tracksuit and a blue hooded sweatshirt. He has his mobile phone in his hands, though it’s unclear whether he’s talking on it or not.
The 27-year-old returns home at 2:01 AM and turns into the narrow street to enter the apartment building entrance. At 2:02 AM, a dark blue car arrives. This is the vehicle used for the abduction, which had been reported stolen from Thessaloniki. Two men exit the parked vehicle at the corner. One of the two appears to be holding a weapon or knife in his hand. The victim gets into the car, which immediately speeds away.
They executed him with a “mercy shot” after shooting him 9 times
The 27-year-old businessman received a total of 10 shots to the back, whose body was discovered yesterday afternoon on the mountain of Nea Peramos. According to journalistic sources from parapolitika.gr, coroner Georgios Di Lernia informed police officers from the Crimes Against Life Department on Monday that the 27-year-old had received a total of 10 bullets.
One was the so-called “mercy shot” to the head, while all the others hit the victim’s back and were directed toward the left side. According to the same briefing of police officers by the experienced coroner of Athens’ forensic service, three of the wounds were through-and-through, and the murder occurred a few hours before his body was found.
The perpetrators then set the 27-year-old on fire after murdering him, apparently to burn any genetic material from the killers that might have been present on the victim’s nails and hands, police estimate. Investigations regarding the identification of the perpetrators are in full progress, with homicide department officers moving within the victim’s broader professional environment.
He was alive for one week in his kidnappers’ hands
It should be noted that the unfortunate young man was found riddled with 10 bullets on Sunday afternoon (01/02). According to the forensic examination, his murder occurred yesterday, a few hours before he was found in the ravine, which means he was alive in his kidnappers’ hands for one week, according to Live News. As specialized police analyst Stavros Balaskas mentioned on the show: “The person who had been abducted by 4 individuals was found, and his abduction had been reported by his partner, literally riddled with bullets in the body and head, with more than 7 bullets, bound hand and foot and in a supine position.”
Meanwhile, according to MEGA’s information, the perpetrators attempted to burn the 27-year-old’s body, but they didn’t succeed because it was raining that day.
Thriller surrounding the 27-year-old’s murder
The man was found in a forested area in a ravine by a passerby. The 27-year-old’s disappearance had been reported to police last Monday, January 26, by his wife, who also handed over to authorities video footage from their security cameras, according to which four individuals forcibly put him in a vehicle, probably under threat of weapons, and disappeared. The vehicle, as emerged from subsequent investigations, was found to be stolen, and due to the 27-year-old man’s past, it was decided not to issue a search request. Police investigations to locate the perpetrators had been at a dead end all these days.
From the videos collected by police, it appears that at 02:02, two perpetrators, both wearing black clothes and hoods, with their facial features hidden, approached the victim and put him in the car.
The woman who helped authorities with the video stated that the 27-year-old had never received any threats nor had anyone bothered him in the past. Meanwhile, as police spokesperson Konstantia Dimoglidou points out, the mystery of the heinous murder is thick, as the 27-year-old had never been of interest to authorities. Authorities are investigating his contacts, who he associated with, and what he did in his business activities.

The 27-year-old’s identification was initially made through a tattoo and the clothes he was wearing, while today official confirmation through DNA is expected. Meanwhile, a forensic examination of the body will be conducted so authorities can accurately record the number and nature of wounds the victim sustained. Police investigations continue for the identification of perpetrators and the circumstances of the murder.
