Lytras

On April 4, Apostolos Lytras will sit in the dock of the Monopolium Court of Appeal, accused of beating her estranged wife Sophia Polyzogopoulou. The hearing of this case was set for next April and before a single-member Court of Appeal, due to special jurisdiction, given the accused’s status as a lawyer.

Criminal defense attorney Apostolos Lytras will be barred from practicing law for the next six months, the Athens Bar Association has decided. The suspension comes in the wake of a domestic violence incident against his wife.

Apostolos Lytras was spotted at a well-known nightclub on the coastal road just hours after his release from prison.

According to Mega, last Saturday, Mr. Lytras, after his release, was seen at the venue where Elli Kokkinou and Lefteris Pantazis perform, accompanied by his eldest daughter.

Apostolos Lytras, the criminal lawyer, was released from prison shortly after 4 PM. His sister, his first wife, and their daughters arrived at Corinth Prison, where he had been held recently, to accompany him upon his release.

Three months after he was remanded in custody on charges of assaulting his wife, prominent criminal lawyer Apostolos Lytras has been granted conditional release.

Court officials decided on the move after a prosecutor recommended that Lytras face misdemeanor, not criminal, charges for the alleged abuse of his wife, fellow attorney Sofia Polyzogopoulou.

The council downgraded the initial felony charge of grievous bodily harm, related to the assault on his wife, Sofia Polyzogopoulou, to a misdemeanor—specifically, intentional domestic endangerment causing bodily harm. As a result, Lytras will now be tried in a Single-Member Misdemeanor Court rather than a Mixed Jury Court.

The conditions imposed on Lytras for his release include:

A prosecutor has recommended that criminal lawyer Apostolos Lytras face misdemeanor charges, not felony, in the alleged abuse of his wife, attorney Sofia Polyzogopoulou. The charge would be reduced to "dangerous bodily harm" from "serious intentional bodily harm."

A criminal lawyer in pre-trial detention for allegedly beating his wife and then breaching his restraining order submitted on Friday a request for his release.

The trial of a woman accused of threatening the wife of her former spouse, who is facing charges of domestic violence, was postponed on Thursday for November 29.

The lifestyle of Apostolos Lytras, marked by conspicuous consumption including luxury vehicles such as Ferraris and Porsches, has generated significant controversy in Greece, particularly in light of his substantial declared tax payments of €50,000
