One hour and 24 minutes: this is the period now at the center of the investigation into the circumstances surrounding the death of Giorgos Mazonakis on September 9.

These are the 84 minutes that elapsed between 2:57 p.m., when the plasmapheresis machine stopped operating, and 4:21 p.m., when the call to the National Emergency Aid Center (EKAV) was finally made.

Within this roughly hour-and-a-half period lies one of the most critical and, as yet, not fully clarified chapters of the case: what exactly was happening inside the Stem Cell clinic at 11 Karneadou Street in Kolonaki; what was the singer’s condition; when it became apparent that his life was in immediate danger; and what actions were taken before outside assistance was requested.

Digital traces, witness statements, and data recovered from the machine and mobile phones now allow the authorities to reconstruct the fatal sequence of events almost minute by minute.

Giorgos Mazonakis arrived at the clinic at 1:55 p.m. on September 9, according to the statement given by the taxi driver who transported him to Kolonaki. A few minutes later, at 2:14:10 p.m., the “INUS PHERESIS” machine was switched on.

A Particularly Significant Piece of Evidence

The digital data recovered from its software show that the plasmapheresis procedure did in fact begin and continued for approximately 42 minutes. However, even before the machine stopped operating, a piece of evidence emerges that has taken on particular significance.

At 2:45:22 p.m., while the device was still operating, Ioanna Gaka, as reported by protothema.gr, photographed Giorgos Mazonakis lying on the bed, unconscious. The significance of this particular image is not limited to what it depicts. It lies primarily in the precise time at which it was taken.

It was 2:45:22 p.m. Approximately 12 minutes later, at 2:57 p.m., the machine stopped operating.

From that moment, the critical 84-minute period begins—the period that authorities are now being called upon to reconstruct with the greatest possible precision.

According to the information available so far, Ioanna Gaka sent the photograph to her husband, Ilias Theodoropoulos, who was at a shop in Kolonaki at the time. He left and rushed back to the clinic.

The doctor has stated that attempts were then made to resuscitate the singer, including CPR and the administration of adrenaline.

The next undisputed point in the timeline that has been recorded is the call to EKAV. The time was 4:21 p.m. From 2:57 p.m. to 4:21 p.m., one hour and 24 minutes had elapsed.

And it is precisely this period that is now at the heart of the investigation.

The relevant authorities are seeking to establish exactly when it was determined that Giorgos Mazonakis had suffered cardiac arrest, how long resuscitation efforts lasted, what happened before assistance was requested, and at what point the decision was ultimately made to call an ambulance.

Once the call was made, EKAV responded immediately. The first paramedic arrived at the scene at 4:24 p.m., just three minutes later. The ambulance then arrived, and at 4:45 p.m. Giorgos Mazonakis was transported to Elpis Hospital. At 5:40 p.m., his death was pronounced.

The case, however, does not end with the timeline of the treatment and the call to EKAV. Findings from the doctor’s mobile phone have also acquired considerable significance. According to the digital evidence, at 7:09 p.m., the photograph taken earlier inside the clinic was deleted from her device.

The deletion reportedly took place before she and her husband went to the police. The couple arrived at the Kypseli Police Station at approximately 7:45 p.m. However, the photograph was not lost.

Police officers were able to recover it, and it is now part of the material being examined as part of the investigation.

At the same time, the digital log of the machine itself is considered particularly important, as it records its operation from 2:14 p.m. to 2:57 p.m. This evidence confirms that the plasmapheresis procedure had begun on the day in question and provides investigators with a clear timeframe within which the events unfolded.

Another factor has also been added to the case.

The representative of the Athens Medical Association, who had participated in previous inspections of the premises, has alleged that this particular plasmapheresis machine had not been shown to the Association’s inspection teams.

Thus, the investigation is no longer limited to determining whether the procedure was carried out and how long it lasted. Increasing attention is being focused on the precise sequence of events that followed.

From 2:45:22 p.m., when Giorgos Mazonakis appears in the photograph unconscious, to 2:57 p.m., when the machine stops operating, and from there to 4:21 p.m., when the call to EKAV is made.

It is within this sequence that the answers the authorities are now seeking are believed to lie;
