Nitsou Wins Case Over 'Eleni the Prostitute' Book: Awarded €25,000

Eleni Sokratous, also known as 'Nitsou', has been vindicated by the Supreme Court in her lawsuit regarding the book 'Eleni the Prostitute'. The court ruled that the book referred to her and that her right to privacy was violated. It rejected the author's claims that the book was based on another, unknown woman, and found that much of the story presented was false, including references to alleged rape. The Supreme Court awarded Ms. Sokratous compensation of €25,000. The decision is considered important as it provides a detailed analysis of the principles governing the violation of privacy.
