The news that shocked Greek-Americans in New York
Σύνταξη/επιμέλεια από τον/την Θεόφιλος Δουμάνης   
Nicholas Kiriakakis, a 25-year-old Queens restaurant/lounge owner, was released on bail on Friday following charges of double homicide and one count of criminal possession of a handgun. Bail was set at $2 million. He pleaded not guilty on Monday to the shooting deaths of two New York City men on a Teaneck street last month. Kiriakakis was brought to state court in Hackensack to be arraigned on two murder charges and one count of criminal possession of a handgun. “We ask the media not to rush to judgment on this case until it is determined what happened on that day,” Elias Fillas, one of Kiriakakis’ lawyers, said after the hearing. Authorities found the bullet-riddled bodies of two Queens residents in a 2007 Ford Explorer on the morning of Feb. 18, with the passenger door open and the engine still running. The two men were good friends and knew Kiriakakis, Bergen County prosecutors said. Prosecutors did not offer any details other than saying the killings were drug-related. Source: Greek USA Reporter
