On the evening of October 9, Greek footballer of Panathinaikos and the national team George Baldock was found dead in his home. Although initial suspicions suggested a possible burglary, Greek police have released preliminary findings indicating otherwise.
Details: Evening Standard, citing Greece's Ministry of Civil Protection, reports that forensic examiners found no signs of violence on Baldock's body, and police ruled out theft, as there were no signs of a break-in or missing property.
Quote: "A preliminary investigation has been carried out by the Attica Security Directorate. A forensic pathologist was called to the scene and examined the body with no evidence of criminal activity.
In addition, the police searched the house to determine if there are any traces of a burglary, with a negative result. Also, a specialised team of the Criminal Investigation Directorate of the Police carried out a check at the house in order to exclude the possibility of criminal activity."
