The estranged husband of Roula Pispirigou who is accused of the murder of their nine-year-old daughter Georgina with many claiming that she is the one who killed their other two children,she spoke for the first time after her arrest and answered everything.
Specifically, Manos Daskalakis referred to the communication he had with her after her arrest, shed light on the case of the landlady and referred to the deaths of the three girls, stressing that even today he cannot believe that Roula is the one who killed Georgina.
Before Wednesday's arrest, did you contact your wife? Did she give you an answer about the ketamine, how it was found?
"Yes... That I don't know anything, I don't even know what ketamine is... And indeed, when she heard, because we were talking at the time, that ketamine was found as a substance, she calls me and says "they took this out now, another this"... My mind couldn't go... Never"!
Did she ask you to go and see her?
"Yes, she asked me to see her."
And what did you tell her? It was a reasonable answer I could give her because inside I don't feel good, not to see her... I can't! It's just not possible..."
Because she implied with what she said about your father and about you, she basically photographed where she might have gotten the ketamine from, because it's known that your father is associated with a pharmacy...
"Of course, the pharmacy can be searched, everything can be searched."
About the landlady
"The woman in principle received a pension. She had no money or anything. We gave her the rents normally with receipts, it can be seen, there is everything and in the tax returns. There was no benefit. First of all, why kill a woman since she hasn't even registered the house, there is no benefit. Not because she hasn't signed the house over to you, there's no benefit to killing her. They can see that. Anybody, the powers that be can see that. First of all, the woman owed a lot of money," Manos Daskalakis said among other things.
As for his acquaintance with Roula, he said that it happened in a football stadium and very quickly, within two months, the 33-year-old became pregnant with Georgina something that Manos Daskalakis claimed that it was not accidental but was their choice.
"The last... April 13, 2019. And just arriving home... I didn't have time to shave. I take a bath to lie down for an hour and she (Rula) calls me and tells me that the child has something wrong. I did Olympic Village - "Hope" 13 minutes by car. I will never forget the moment. I was begging God to take me and bring my child back..." are Manos' words about Malena's last night.
And when you go there, what do you see?
The doctors to resuscitate the child, the intensivist came out, he says "we are 20 minutes here, the child won't come back". We tell him "go in and try again". And he came out in 45 minutes and announced to us that the child...
How was Rula when you went to the hospital? How did you see her?
"She was very upset. She was screaming. I wasn't the only one who went. My uncles came too. It was a mother's reaction to losing her child. That's why I say it again there is not the slightest suspicion that she had given us..."
Back then, as Manos says, he and Rula had no problems. On the contrary, they were going through their best phase.
"I had left home when Iris died... We had split up. We had parted in words" says Manos Daskalakis in another part of his interview.
What had bothered you?
"It's personal, I can't say. But it has nothing to do with the case..."
But you had made a decision then...
"Yes, I had made a decision... Roula's sister calls me, she says "the child". I arrived three minutes before the ambulance because I was within walking distance. I go in and I see Rula doing CPR on the child. What I saw was like seeing Malena again... I lost it. I was trying to see what I was going to do."
While at another point she explains that after Iris' death she decided to return home for a few days to be close to Georgina and also to support Rula.
Ketamine was found in three times the proportion that an adult dies...
"I can't... I still can't believe it..."
Can't you realize it?
"Not realize it... I can't. I think we're talking about another woman. That we're talking about another person. I can't conceive, I can't digest that I for nine years... Not to absolve myself of responsibility. It's not just me, it's so many people... I've said at every death that I regret spending so many hours doing what's best for my children and I haven't lived some moments with them. If I regretted once then, I regret 50 now. But I have always worked to do my best for them! I never expected that this moment would come..."
At another point Manos Daskalakis refers to the ketamine found in the tests of Georgina.
"There was no substance in the hospital... And it is something that I learned today... That this substance in "Aglaia Kyriakou" did not exist! And it's not just checked by me and by you... It's checked by a drug agency and by those who supply the drugs to Aglaia. And no one entered that room... She was alone! And I don't think there was any nurse or any doctor who could have put her in...
I would have said by now that if there was this drug in this hospital, that there has been a mistake by the doctors. That instead of giving something else they have given this. And I would say -- another mistake to me. Another mistake to my family. And I would move differently there too because to this day that I'm talking to you... I refuse to believe it. I CAN'T BELIEVE IT."
