Grief, anger and fears of a feud. Three 24 hours after the murder of Kostas Haritakis by the gunfire of his fellow villager and the police presence in Argulios Mylopotamos is felt. In the Rethymno Police Department has been alerted to the possibility of a feud.
The perpetrator will apologize on Friday while the "thirst for revenge for the blood that was spilled is great" say the residents of the village.The victim's family is trying to recover from the shock of the murder of their beloved Kostas while according to reports in the next few days the 22-year-old's family has a court date with the perpetrator's brother, as he allegedly threatened Kostas Haritakis' widow with a gun at an earlier time.
"I want to know "why" they killed my husband"
"What will I tell him when he grows up?Where is his father? Is this going to go on? Will we be afraid, not to go around Rethymno? What else do they want? Are they happy now that they 'took' my husband? Do they want him back? He will enjoy his children even if he is in prison. What will he do to me? We don't know why it happened, we want the perpetrator to come out and say why he did it. They didn't want him to be happy. They wanted him to be alone, deserted and to do what they want with him."
This is what the wife of 22-year-old Kostis, Stella Dermitzaki, who was murdered in Argoulios, Mylopotamos, says.
At the same time, Stella says she is certain that her husband could not have spoken in bad terms about the dead father of his 44-year-old neighbor and killer[/B] She rejects the killer's claims that he did it because the 22-year-old insulted his family.[/B] "There is no way he could have said such a thing. Because the killer's father had said to baptize the child," adds the 22-year-old's wife.
She even says she is sure that if the brutal killing hadn't happened at that exact moment, it would have happened some other time, and that's because, she says: "He was set up. If they didn't do it on Sunday, they would have done it some other time. They had made an attempt before. The killer's brother went to hit me."
