Manhunt for 64-Year-Old Accused of Attempted Rape of 25-Year-Old Woman with Disability

Police are searching for a 64-year-old man accused of attempted rape of a 25-year-old woman with a disability in Kypseli. The woman's mother, Katerina Bekiari, described the terrifying moments she experienced when she found him on top of her daughter and pushed him away with a frying pan. A forensic examination found no evidence of abuse. Security camera footage shows the man entering the apartment, while a neighbor reported seeing him in the past taking a disabled girl for a bath. The 64-year-old is said to have met the 25-year-old's mother at a church soup kitchen and fled after the incident. The mother reported being punched and kicked when she tried to stop him.
