New murder charges for Greek bouncer

3333-150x1501A Greek nightclub bouncer jailed for the bashing death of Australian tourist Doujon Zammit on the island of Mykonos will be tried again on more serious charges following a prosecutor’s appeal.
Marios Antonopoulos, 25 (foto), will now face a maximum life sentence if convicted over the August 2008 murder of the 20-year-old Sydney man.
Last month, a Greek court jailed Antonopoulos for 22 years for causing fatal bodily injury to Zammit, after an argument outside a nightclub on the holiday island.
Prosecution lawyer Alexis Cougias said Zammit’s family were pleased with Thursday’s decision ‘because they want to see the life sentence imposed.’
Two other men convicted of complicity in Zammit’s death will also face tougher charges. No date has been set for the appeal trial.
