There was great tension in the trial of the prosecution brought against him Achillea Beaufor racist behavior towards the Kifissia football player Andrea Tettei. During the hearing, the president of Volos called the lawyer of the Athenian team a “waiter”, Argyri Liva. When he went to invoke a particular article, Beoce intervened and the following dialogue took place:
Livas: “Mayor in your City Hall these things. Achilles end. You will not cast such spells on me.”
Beos: “You do magic! Have respect!”
Livas: “You begged me to postpone. I’m very much a geek in all matters. Achilles, finally!
Beos: “Waiter!”
Argyris Livas asked for a one-hour break in the proceedings to calm down, but the proceedings continued normally. Achillea Beu’s lawyer, Ms. Vlachava, argued that the word “monkey” does not have a racist connotation.
“In dozens of dictionaries it is used in the sense of cunning and false. There is no dictionary that gives a racist year. We provide several copies of dictionaries, together with the interpretation of Mr. Charalambakis, a linguist. In football parlance, the word is used as monkey penalty, monkey foul and no prosecution was ever carried out. It is used figuratively. The president of AEK had called referee Kako a monkey three times. Again not properly prosecuted. The sole purpose is to alter the league standings,” he said and added:
“Mr. Beos has lived in the USA for many years, he has been involved in the artistic field. He has people of other nationalities, in his house and in his children. There was never any suspicion of a racist attack. In my opinion it is completely racist to prosecute because one man did it. He may use a sharp speech, but he is no different from other people. I hope you will consider them. Here the word was spoken in the sense of false conduct. Whichever player did it the same phrase would be used. The inclusion of each act in the racist law should be done with care based on the law itself. Was there such a danger here? A false behavior was commented on during the intensity of the match.”
New tension
The Beu-Liva dispute continued, but the sports judge Anastasios Datskos blew the whistle to end it. The following was said between the two men:
Livas: “You will beg me.”
Beos: “Are you threatening me?”
Livas: “Since you know who shot me, why don’t you say it?”
Beos: “You know.”
Livas: “You said you know.”
Beos: “The camp you are in now.”
