It began shortly after 9 o'clock:20 this morning to adjourn for April 12 the trial for the murder of 20-year-old Caroline Crouch in Sweet Waters with her husband Bambi Anagnostopoulos as the defendant, who when he took the witness stand and was asked to give his evidence said he was married and widowed.
Immediately afterwards the court proceeded to draw the four jurors, two men and two women.
Absent from today's proceedings are Caroline's parents, who were represented by their lawyer. Caroline's mother wanted to come to court today but specialists did not allow it so as not to shake her health, the lawyer for the 20-year-old's family said, noting that the victim's father cannot be at the trial either because of serious mobility health problems he faces, which do not allow him to move even on the island of Alonissos, where he lives permanently.
Subsequently, the prosecutor read the heavy indictment against the 33-year-old pilot, who listened attentively from the dock, without expressing himself on the charge.
After the reading of the indictment, the defense of the 33-year-old submitted a request to adjourn the trial due to the need to be present in another court.
The court finally decided to adjourn the trial to April 12.
Furthermore, the court granted the request of the Marathon Animal Welfare Association to appear as a prosecution for the death of the family's dog.
The crime in Glyka Nera is also attracting the interest of foreign media as 4 journalists from abroad were in the courtroom to watch the proceedings.
