Mother whose 15-year-old girl was left brain-damaged by rapist who tried to kill her with a rock during attack in Greece reveals anguish that her child cannot walk or talk nine years on

A mother has spoken of her pain nine years after her daughter was raped and hit with a stone by a stranger when she was just 15. 

Myrto was left bed-bound and unable to communicate after the incident when she was on holiday on the Greek island of Paros. 

She was raped by 24-year-old Adhmet Wakas after she wandered a short distance from her family in July 2012. 

He then tried to kill her by hitting her head on the seafront rocks before repeatedly throwing a stone at her head. She was found half-naked and unconscious shortly afterwards.

Despite doctors' best efforts, Myrto suffered aphasia due to severe injuries to her head and lungs. She remains unable to comprehend or formulate language to this day. 

Aphasia is when a person has difficulty with their language or speech and is usually caused by damage to the left side of the brain. 

Nine years after the shocking crime, her mother, Mary Kotrotsou, took to Facebook to vent her sadness and anger over the event. 

In the poignant social media post, Mary said: 'Nine years... it's been since the day I saw you walk one last time.

'Nine years have passed and I didn't hear your voice tweaking endlessly. 

'Nine years... of hospitals, surgeries, treatments, and unstoppable pains even today. 

'Nine years... that you don't live your life like your peers, you only watch and understand. 

'Nine years... running to which doctor tells me he can do something. To every therapist for any treatment. Where I read that he may have been presented in the medical field and has a relationship with the brain. In Greece and abroad. 

'Nine years... that I pray and hope for a miracle from God because I have nothing else left to do. 

'Nine years... when ordinary people ask me about your health and I don't know what to answer.

'Today I accidentally read that it is World Brain Day. What an irony for you that on this day a monster destroyed your own brain!' 

Mary also revealed that her daughter is bed-bound and could only move around in a wheelchair.    

She wrote in the post: 'I'm waiting for the state to take responsibility for what happened to you because it was not an accident, it was not a car accident.'
