Failed Assassination Attempt and Execution of Giorgos Moschouris in Chalandri

Authorities are piecing together the profile of the executioners of Giorgos Moschouris, discussing an organized syndicate targeting the 55-year-old. The perpetrators had closely surveilled Moschouris’s movements to meticulously plan his assassination, which ultimately occurred at noon on Thursday (24/05/2025) in Chalandri. They knew when he would leave and what time he would exit a private clinic, turning the center of Chalandri into chaos as soon as they saw him emerge. According to reports, Moschouris controlled 70% of nightclubs in Attica and Mykonos and was active in the illicit cigarette trade. Authorities had warned Moschouris about assassination attempts; within a year, police informed him of threats against his life, some thwarted by authorities at the last moment. Despite these warnings, Moschouris appeared careless. On the afternoon of Thursday, while leaving the clinic unprotected, he was killed with dozens of bullets from Kalashnikovs. Unanswered questions remain: who ordered the precise death contract? Was it someone seeking control of the nightclub business he dominated or a rival in the illegal cigarette trade? Authorities believe two Kalashnikovs were used in the execution, with most shots hitting his head, nearly destroying it. Evidence from security cameras and the disposal site of the stolen car used by the killers is being analyzed. Authorities have videos of the escape but not the execution due to the chosen ‘blind spot.’ Mobile phones found on Moschouris after the murder and 54 cartridge cases are being examined for fingerprints or genetic material.
