By a narrow majority, by a vote of 4 to 3, the 39-year-old sailing coach, who was unanimously found guilty of the offence of abuse of a minor athlete, was acquitted by the Athens Joint Jury Court a short while ago.
Four members of the court, who formed the majority, one presiding judge and three jurors took a different view from the prosecutor, who had earlier recommended the defendant's guilt for the offence of rape as well.
During the recitation of the verdict, the president of the court, one presiding judge and one juror dissented and voted in favour of his guilt.
On hearing the verdict, the mother of the now 21-year-old athlete who accused the coach burst into tears.
