In detail the Juliet Boukouvala he says in his letter: “Señor Αυγενάκη, My name is Juliet Boukouvala, it is the second time I send you E-mail. I had the courage to speak to you because there is support for them in the news. Athletes. I have stopped the championship, but the mental problems that my course in this field left have not gone away and at this moment I am writing to you, I am fighting not to lose my hand due to an injury that has come from the difficulties that I went through in the championship.
I come from Ioannina and when I was little my dream was to become an Olympian, I was a talent, a child who had more physical and mental strength than other children and that is why my mother at 15 decided to send me to Athena to make my dream come true. We weren’t a rich family, so we had to find a place to live and eat, so Panhellenic General Assembly He took me to his place.
When my mother took me to Athens to let me (just) make my dream come true, she told me the following: little boy you see me from there he is Concord there are drugs, women who are broadcast and all the underworld and from here it is your dream, you choose where you want to go.
And that’s how he history (because my mother never knew that when she showed me the streets of life she had to tell me that everything happens in Omonia in the championship).
Well, because the 2004 the Olympic would take place in Greece, the then federation, after changing direction, decided to hire coaches to promote Athletes, coaches Where, in course I learned that the training licenses they have are a simple piece of paper that I don’t know if they even studied it or if they gave it to them by hand or on request at home.
These coaches, therefore, due to the fact that they did not have Greek citizenship, it was easy for them to bring athletes and turn them into Greeks to fight for Greece (for a fee, of course).
Thus, a very strong team was created by all of them, but without including almost any of the athletes who were born in this country, fought, suffered, dreamed, etc.
Of course, from what you understand, they created a climate jealousy Y against and this is because when an athlete was with them they had everything, while the others did not even exist.
I will give you an example so that you understand what I mean: O Elias Iliadis, when he arrived in Greece they knew he would become what he is, they knew he was a talent and he had everything, he had a team around him of doctors, physiotherapists and the entire federation above him, the then coach took me, left me in Slovenia alone, sleeping on the floor not having a coach, doctor, nothing.
It was there that I broke my ears for the first time and had to I take out the liquid with a syringe put a towel in my mouth so as not to scream and put on cologne instead of alcohol and this was done daily and of course the conditions we lived in were simply inhumane …
In another country we went to I suffered herpes in the mouth of a dirty cutlery, it came a little close to the heart, until we returned to Greece they put me in salt water so that I would not get it (oh my God what pain, what torture), we returned to Greece and I sat in the hospital for 1 month and the doctor told me that he had never seen anything like it.
When we came back from preparation before the 2004 Olympics, Coach X’s team told me that there are a contract which has some conditions and if I sign it I will also join the group with the favored ones.
I didn’t sign it never because what they told me was written is contrary to the ideas I had and that is why they put me on the blacklist along with another athlete who did not sign either.
Henceforth everyone was against meNone of Coach X’s staff members were instructed not to talk to me and not to help me at all. The athletes were told not to talk to me and when I was injured I had to find the solution alone or even for my weight.
They did not let me change my weight category, they told me if I change category they won’t take me to the racesSome people, who of course did not have medical papers, put in to tell me that I should only drink conditioning instead of water and eat a toast with caviar all day, and I did it because I only wanted the medal.
They destroyed my organs internally, I got an ulcer and I reached the limit of anorexia, and they laughed with me and told me that I am nothing and that if I do not go with them I will never get a medal.
But I managed and managed to do a lot by having a coach with me who only insulted me and I had to tolerate his terrible behavior as a coach. He put his personal life above all else, it was for us preparations in places where not even the guards live and he lived in another place and was always with his relatives because he chose to go to the preparations in the countries where he comes from, salivated in front of our eyes with female athletes and got to the point inside the Plane to have sex under the blanket with a passenger.
The other coach, because I saw some things that were happening in terms of management and I said them, put athletes who had not yet become Greeks to rot me in the forest during training and tell me you will kill.
All these years have become many of which I do not know how many hours I have to write to describe them. In the last Olympics of 2012, after much struggle and with a temporary administration that entered the federation, I managed to do the impossible.
They asked me what I wanted them to do for me and I told them change coach. And we did, but for a while, because then the interim administration left and the team of the man I mentioned, Coach X, started a war between my coach and me, who fortunately could not change it, against they (at least I had someone to support me for once), they didn’t want us, they didn’t even want me to go to the Olympics and so my coach (the new coach after the interim administration) addressed the world federation where I supported with my preparation.
At the airport leaving for London They called me and told me that my fight was fixed and they will never leave me a medal because I am just Greek as a male voice with broken Greek told me on the phone.
I reacted at the wrong time and moment because I am just a human being and I said where are the Greeks to support me, and then came the gratuitous Shooting.
I put pressure on everyone’s team and they tore me apart, they kicked me out of the sport, They threatened to drop the lawsuit I had filed, they beat me to the point of going to the hospital, they broke my car, they took out a gun, they threatened my mother where she was in the last stage of cancer, and many more.
I fought in court to be vindicated and I succeeded in court, but my name was never restored by all those who I regret to say are in sport to cover up the dirty work they do outside of sport …
From what you understand, Minister, everything is a game well placed on the altar of money with the victims the athletes who do not want to be in cliques and do not want to be pawns. Today I am in Thessaloniki, I am struggling with physical pain because of the hardships and beatings I have a problem with my neck and I am in danger of a small disability in my hands but also in my psyche that all this left me.
And I wonder: sport is physical and mental education and the promotion of our culture or the way out of money laundering and much more… I don’t care about publicity and I’m not looking for it, that’s why I’m writing to you directly. “I only care that they clean the judo area and that some dangerous people leave.”
