Gang posing as accountants scams unwary citizens - Among them a famous gymnast

According to TV channel Star, last May, the scam artists managed to extract valuables worth 10,000 euros and money from the judge, posing as accountants.

They told her on the phone that there was supposedly a fine that she had to pay and convinced her to give the amount to their assistant. The "assistant accountant" was the brother of a famous athlete.

The man in question, a former tennis coach and delivery man, allegedly followed the instructions of the gang members and received the amount on his motorbike, wearing a helmet and casual clothes. The scene was recorded by a security camera outside the judge's house, while the woman later reportedly identified the perpetrator.

The ring's leaders and luxurious trips abroad

According to the same information, the gang had tentacles throughout the country, with 49-year-old H.K. acting as the leader and his 27-year-old son, G.A., being his "right-hand man". According to the information, the ring recruited people from various walks of life, such as the former tennis coach, to carry out the illegal activities.

It is noteworthy that the members of the gang were not limited to fraud in Greece, but also appear to have been involved in luxury trips to countries such as Spain and Italy, while according to information, the circuit also had relations with individuals abroad, such as an Armenian who recruited the brother of the gymnast.

The brother of the famous gymnast is on the run in Peru

The gymnast's brother, who is accused of participating in the fraud, appears to have fled to Peru and has not appeared before the authorities.

The accused in question has been called to testify on Wednesday along with his sister. However, it is unknown whether he will appear before the authorities or whether an arrest warrant will be issued as provided for in this case.

The athlete denies any involvement in the case

Meanwhile, his sister, who lived with him and their mother until recently, is being held on charges of money laundering. Despite her denial of any involvement, the authorities are investigating the money deposited in her accounts, which amount to 400,000 euros, as well as the 9,000 euros found in her home. According to information, she herself seems to be in a serious psychological crisis.

Now, the authorities are continuing their investigations to identify all members of the gang and bring all those involved to justice.
