New details have emerged from the investigation shaking Greek basketball, with police saying a total of \u20ac931,463 was seized during searches at the homes of the six people arrested. According to SPORT24, \u20ac820,000 was found at one referee\u2019s home in Pieria, another \u20ac102,000 at a second referee\u2019s residence and more than \u20ac8,000 at the home of Greek federation president Vangelis Liolios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Greek police also seized 14 mobile phones, six laptops, 22 USB storage devices, two tablets, memory cards, a hard drive and other material. Three Olympiacos shirts and additional team memorabilia were also reportedly found at the home of the female referee involved in the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The investigation concerns alleged improper interference aimed at influencing the course, nature or result of basketball games connected to domestic or international betting competitions. SPORT24 also reports that Greece\u2019s anti-money laundering authority has been informed to examine whether any alleged proceeds may have been laundered through a coffee business chain linked to Liolios and a close associate. These remain investigative allegations that have yet to be established in court.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
