In Thessaloniki, a 42-year-old man has been sentenced to a total of five months in prison for threatening his wife shortly after a court appearance where he was convicted of a prior domestic threat case against her. This recent incident occurred just last Wednesday, during which the man verbally abused his wife, insisting he would take revenge and destroy her life. The wife testified in court about the threats he made to burn their home, her car, and even her, describing his demeanor as frightening and desperate for help from the judiciary for her safety.

The court proceedings revealed that the man had been previously convicted and sentenced to ten months in prison, with a three-year suspension, for earlier domestic threats against the same spouse. His latest actions led the Thessaloniki Single-Member Misdemeanor Court to impose a new prison sentence. The wife, emphasizing her fear for her and their young child, who has health problems, pleaded for the court to ensure their safety.

During his defense, the 42-year-old denied the accusations, claiming that he cared for their child and was in pain over the situation. However, his prior record and the serious nature of the recent threats have raised concerns about the family's safety, highlighting the ongoing issue of domestic violence and the necessity of protective measures for victims.
