Confession in Double Murder Case: "I Played the Neighbor, Going to Drag Him Down"

The trial for the double murder of Andreas Kouzoupis and David Chmelar is underway. According to testimonies, the defendant confessed to a friend his intention to kill Kouzoupis, due to disagreements over the purchase of a loudspeaker. The defendant initially wanted to beat him, but ultimately decided to kill him. On July 30th, after a phone call with his friend, the defendant told him that he "played the neighbor" and that he was going to Listovouno to "drag him down". The forensic doctor testified that Kouzoupis was shot at close range. The witness, shocked by the defendant's words, tried to learn more, but the defendant hung up the phone.
