Doujon's father may turn off life support after Mykonos bashing

1/08/2008 7:01:00 AM.  | Ron Wilson & AP
A dreadful decision is facing the family of the Australian man bashed by bouncers on the Greek Island of Mykonos - his dad may have to turn off his life support today.

"The doctors have said he's brain dead, on life support," the victim's father Oliver Zammit said, in tears outside the Athens hospital.

"Maybe tomorrow we'll turn off the life support and take him home.

"I thank the Greek people for being so supportive."

Doujon Zammit suffered extreme brain damage when he was beaten with a metal baton by nightclub bouncers who'd accused him and his group of friends of stealing a handbag.

The four bouncers have been arrested and charged with assault - charges will be upgraded to manslaughter if the 20-year-old Australian dies.
