The allegations of rigged matches shaking Greek basketball have taken on a new dimension. Greek Basketball Federation President Vangelis Liolios is among the defendants named in the investigation.

According to the statements made, the claims about rigged matches have long occupied the agenda of Greek basketball. The inclusion of the federation president's name on the list of defendants has further increased the seriousness of the matter.

In a written statement, 59-year-old Liolios announced that he is stepping away from basketball-related duties for as long as the judicial process continues. The statement said he will not be active in this field until the legal process is concluded.

This development is seen as an important turning point for basketball management in Greece. How the investigation will proceed and what path the federation will take in the coming period are matters of keen interest.
