New details are emerging in the case of Giorgos Mazonakis and the events that unfolded at a private clinic in Kolonaki, with Star TV’s main evening news bulletin reporting that the singer was allegedly administered either propofol or midazolam for sedation prior to undergoing plasmapheresis. As noted in the report, this information is expected to be confirmed by toxicology test results. According to the same source, these substances are associated with sedation administered before the plasmapheresis procedure and cannot be linked to the hydrotherapy session the singer underwent the previous day, as they have a short half-life and cannot be detected two days later. Star TV connects this new information to a photograph showing the singer slumped to one side inside the clinic, and reports that if the presence of the substance is confirmed by toxicological testing, further legal action will follow.

Mazonakis: The critical minutes inside the clinic
The same report details what allegedly took place during the critical moments inside the clinic, with Star TV stating that the singer was sedated and that there was a delay in administering an antidote. When his condition deteriorated, according to the report, staff turned to AI to search for resuscitation guidelines related to plasmapheresis, and a phone call was made to an anesthesiologist to request instructions. It is also reported that Mazonakis was losing oxygen without receiving bag-mask ventilation (Ambu), while questions have also been raised about the use of a defibrillator — with the report alleging that instructions were sought over the phone from a technician. Star TV traces the beginning of this chain of events to the previous day, when the singer had visited the Kolonaki clinic for hydrotherapy, noting that the doctor allegedly insisted he also undergo plasmapheresis — a procedure that carried a cost of €6,000.
Particular weight is also given to a witness testimony presented in the report regarding the decision to proceed with the plasmapheresis the following day. “Mazonakis came to the clinic perfectly normally on Tuesday, for a pre-scheduled appointment, initially to undergo plasmapheresis, which he declined, opting for hydrotherapy instead. The doctor told him to come back the next day for the plasmapheresis. We all advised her not to bring the man back the next day for treatment, because 48 hours must pass between procedures on different machines. She shouted back at us: ‘You’re not doctors. I am the doctor and I know what I’m doing,’ and booked him an appointment for the following day,” a witness told Live News.
The messages with the hypnotherapist
Also coming to light are messages allegedly exchanged between the 56-year-old accused doctor and a hypnotherapist with whom the singer had a scheduled appointment on the same day and with whom, according to the report, he had a contractual arrangement. Shortly after 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, September 9, 2026, the doctor allegedly wrote to him: “Giorgos is not well — he experienced a drop in blood pressure and was taken by the ambulance service (EKAV)…” The hypnotherapist asked, “Who is with him?” and the response he allegedly received was: “No one — they came and took him from the clinic…” The hypnotherapist, believing according to the report that the singer was still in Kolonaki, replied: “At least have someone go with him…” Receiving no response, he allegedly sent another message to the 56-year-old doctor a few minutes later: “I’m holding you responsible for this…” Finally, according to exclusive information obtained by Star TV, the preliminary findings of the forensic medical report on Giorgos Mazonakis’s heart are linked, per the report, to the sedation he received.
