A 49-year-old secondary school teacher in Patras has been arrested following a complaint by an 18-year-old former student, who allegedly told police that they had been in a relationship from the time she was 14 until she was 17.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A serious case involving a secondary school teacher is under investigation in Patras after police arrested a 49-year-old man following a complaint made by an 18-year-old woman, who is now a university student.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the complaint, the woman alleges that she had a relationship with the teacher between the ages of 14 and 17. The case has now been referred to the judicial authorities, with the teacher expected to appear before a prosecutor in Patras.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teacher and private tutor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to information reported by Greek media, the 49-year-old was not only the girl’s teacher at school but also reportedly gave her private lessons at her home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The former student allegedly told police that the relationship began when she was 14 and continued for several years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She also reportedly alleged that, while she was still a minor, the teacher encouraged her to send him nude photographs and videos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police reportedly found material relating to the complaint on the man’s mobile phone. As a result, he is also facing allegations concerning sexually abusive material involving a minor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What the teacher allegedly told police<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to reports, the teacher did not deny having a relationship with the girl when questioned by police.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He reportedly claimed that he was in love with her and that this was why he entered into the relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The allegations and the evidence gathered by police will now be examined by the judicial authorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The case is now before the courts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The 49-year-old was being held at the Police Headquarters in Patras and was expected to be taken before the prosecutor on Thursday, August 27.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The case is particularly serious because the allegations concern a period during which the complainant was a minor and the accused was reportedly her teacher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this stage, the allegations remain allegations and the investigation and judicial proceedings will determine the facts and any criminal responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Presumption of innocence<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As with any criminal case, the arrest and allegations do not constitute a conviction. The accused is presumed innocent unless and until a court establishes guilt through the judicial process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
