*Ayia Napa, Cyprus – August 31, 2026* – The daughter of businessman Dimi Mavropoulos has been discharged from the hospital following a tragic boating accident off Cape Greco that resulted in her father's death. The incident occurred last Saturday, leading to a complex rescue operation that ultimately saved Mavropoulos's daughter and her partner.
An autopsy conducted by forensic pathologists Angeliki Papetta and Orthodoxos Orthodoxou confirmed that the 76-year-old Mavropoulos drowned after becoming trapped in the wreckage of his boat. The autopsy also revealed multiple injuries consistent with the circumstances of the accident.
