Criminal prosecution of the head of the station

Yesterday, the 59-year-old stationmaster was charged with negligent serial homicide, reckless bodily harm and disruption of transport.

Yesterday he was taken to the prosecutor and investigator of Larisa, from whom he asked and received a sentence and is expected to apologize next Saturday.

Although, according to information from the police, he initially tried to attribute the accident to an electronic system failure, during the pre-investigation apology he admitted that he had made a mistake.

“The accused is literally devastated and has already taken on part of the duties assigned to him,” his lawyer Stefanos Pantzartsidis told reporters.

Research in all directions is required Is. Dogiakos

The prosecutor of the Supreme Court by a new resolution asks the prosecutor’s office of Larisa to expand investigative actions that go beyond the powers of the head of the station in all directions and to immediately collect material evidence from the scene of the tragedy.

Mr. Isidoros Dogiakos primarily refers to the need to collect evidence from the scene of the tragedy in order to facilitate the investigation, while he persistently raises questions of expanding investigative actions in all directions.

“The hour of justice has come,” he emphasizes in his instruction to the head of the Larissa Prosecutor’s Office of Appeal, Stamatis Daskalopoulos, who has been entrusted with overseeing all investigations from the first moment of the unthinkable tragedy.
