The former director of Greece’s national theatre has been detained on charges of rape amid mounting accusations of sexual abuse in the country’s arts scene.

 

Dimitris Lignadis, a powerful cultural figure well known for his acting and directing, appeared in handcuffs before a public prosecutor on Sunday after being accused of assaulting two men when they were minors. The 56-year-old, who will be kept in custody until his plea on Wednesday, has vehemently rejected the accusations.
