The investigating magistrate and the prosecutor ruled early on Friday that former Greek National Theater director and actor Dimitris Lignadis should be further detained until trial.
Lignadis, who concluded his testimony before a prosecutor on Thursday, has been detained since Saturday evening over charges of sexual abuse.
He is accused of two rapes. One of a 14-year-boy, in 2010, and another for which the victim has been deposed in front of prosecutors and which has not been made known as of yet.
