New evidence has emerged in the investigation into the collapse of singer Giorgos Mazonakis at a medical practice on Karneadou Street, with a report by ERT citing data obtained after investigators gained access to the mobile phones of six people linked to the case.
According to the report, analysts from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations allegedly found searches made through artificial intelligence applications on the 56-year-old doctor's mobile phone while the incident was unfolding.
ERT reports that the queries allegedly included questions such as “how to reverse sedation”, “is there an antidote for propofol?” and “is propofol available in pill form?”
The same report states that authorities also recovered deleted conversations and messages exchanged with both the singer and a hypnotherapist, while data retrieved from electronic devices is also being examined.
According to ERT, the findings so far indicate possible administration of propofol, while investigators are also examining whether midazolam, a powerful sedative, may have been administered.
The report notes that investigators are examining whether the two substances were used in combination, as such a combination can, under certain circumstances, be particularly dangerous.
At the same time, according to ERT, a group conversation recovered from the mobile phones of employees at the medical practice reportedly contains references that investigators are assessing as part of efforts to establish the circumstances under which the substances were administered to the singer.
The report also states that preliminary toxicology results reportedly indicate the presence of propofol, midazolam and flumazenil.
The judicial and criminal investigation remains ongoing, with the competent authorities assessing all testimony and scientific findings before reaching definitive conclusions.
