He was found dead days later in the courtyard of his home.

An elderly man in his 70s was found dead in the courtyard of his home in the coastal area of Alkyonida, Katakolo, in the region of Elis. The man had likely died several days prior, as neighbors noticed a foul odor coming from the house and the fact that he had not been seen for several days. Using flashlights, two neighbors discovered the body in an advanced state of decomposition. They immediately called the police, who conducted an initial investigation at the scene. Due to the advanced stage of decomposition, a forensic pathologist from Patras was called to examine the body. The man was a permanent resident of the coastal settlement and lived alone in the house. Authorities are investigating the circumstances of his death and await the results of the forensic examination.
