Dimitris Koutsoubas was at the site of the national tragedy in Tempi, where he was briefed by the fire department on the progress of the investigation. The General Secretary of the KKE stated that “there are no words to express our great sorrow for this unspeakable tragedy, there are no words to express our condolences to the relatives of the innocent victims of this great tragedy. It’s not an accident or an accident, it’s a prescribed crime. The employees themselves reported this to the OSE, to the railways. The KKE condemned this from the halls of Parliament. The PAME unions have been denouncing this for months.”

Commitment

He pointed out that problems will remain until there are enough personnel, trained, qualified, certified, with the right working relationships, until there is control, coordination, control over infrastructure development, maintenance of railway tracks and signaling. . He promised that “the knife will go into the bone” and the KKE’s role will focus on highlighting the existing responsibilities of the state, government, individuals and private companies.

Dimitris Koutsoumbas, after the fatal train crash at Tempi, visited the 5th Medical Region of Thessaly and Central Greece in Larisa, where he met with its commander, F. Seretis, from whom he was informed about the condition of those injured in the railway accident and the process of identifying the bodies by taking DNA samples.
