Gargasoulas was allegedly stabbed by his brother Dimitrious (Jimmy) Gargasoulas during an altercation over Angelo’s sexuality the same day as the attack that killed five people and injured dozens more in Melbourne’s CBD.

“To all the families of the victims involved in last Fridays tragedy, my heart goes out to you and for all those still fighting in hospital, my thoughts are with you and your recovery,” Gargasoulas wrote.

“No one could’ve predicted what Jimmy did or that he’d do that, that morning. I’m fortunate enough to still have my life and the support I have received is unheard of!!! I thank everyone involved in making this an easier time for everyone else involved, and my family,” he continues.

Gargasoulas spent a number of days in hospital after the alleged attack, but now seems to have been discharged and in recovery.

“As for me, I still got some recovery time to do, and it’s all looking good… Still in disbelief, the realism of it all has yet to fully sink in, stay strong Melbourne!”
