Forest owner Marinakis sues Greek rival over alleged smears

Marinakis, a shipping magnate who also owns Olympiakos, is suing Irini Karipidis, the owner of Aris, over allegations made on a website, social media and mobile billboards between November 2023 and March 2024.

A hearing yesterday was told the allegations, which Marinakis denies, include that he was involved in match-fixing and a high-profile drug trafficking case in Greece.

Barristers for Marinakis said the allegations were "completely untrue" and that the case should proceed in an English court because it had a "real prospect of success".
