A convicted former power firm executive who was last month controversially released from jail on health grounds, was expected to return to Halkida Prison on the island of Evia Monday.
Earlier Monday, Aristides Floros, 39, appeared before an appeals prosecutor and waited for around an hour in order to receive his jailing orders.
An investigation by anti-corruption prosecutors into the circumstances that led to his release is ongoing.
He had been released from Halkida Prison after presenting judicial authorities with medical evidence that he suffered a disability.
