The priest was put on holiday by the Holy Diocese of Serbia and Kozani, who in a video published on the website kozanimedia.gr, appears to be arguing and then slapping a citizen in a neighborhood of the city of Kozani.
For this incident, which took place last Thursday, 29 October 2020, there was an immediate intervention of the Diocese after the publication of the visual material, which made the relevant decision.
The priest, which had occupied Justice in the past, for another case, for which, however, he was acquitted, claimed to have been provoked by the person who slapped him and who is known to him, because he cursed his aunts.
