Kolonos: The first reaction of the 12 year old to hearing the decision – Mother burst into tears

It is noted that the court condemned the main defendant Elias Micho for the rape and masquerade of the 12-year-old girl from Kolonos and acquitted the mother of the 12-year-old. The child learned the news at school and the first thing she did was talk to her mother. “The case is a vindication for the child, a victory for Justice, we are moved. The child learned it, he was at school and talked to his mother,” said a lawyer for the 12-year-old’s mother. “We are satisfied because the 12 year old voice was heard” she noted. “The mother is innocent, as I was saying at first, what the 12-year-old said that the 34-year-old had nothing to do with the case, was confirmed by the decision. It was unfair from the beginning to keep her safe. She went and denounced the rapist of her child and was in prison for 18 months,” mother’s lawyer Apostolos Lytras noted. Outside the Mixed Jury Court there is a festive climate and a crowd of people are shouting slogans for the mother and against Elijah Michos, while at her hearing they burst into tears.
