Of course, the Attorney General has the final say on the further handling of the case and whether he will give the go-ahead for criminal prosecutions.
Recall that Natalie was run over by a jeep she was riding in with two other National Guardsmen and died instantly.
As Cyprus Times Times had reported in a previous report, the two soldiers in their statements claimed that after being instructed to refuel the vehicle at a point where the ground was uneven, the jeep overturned. As they were questioned about the speed of the vehicle at the time of the overturn, it did not exceed the limit as they claimed.
After blueprints were drawn in the area to ascertain the route of the fatal jeep, the vehicle was also subjected to an electromechanical test so that safe conclusions could be drawn if there was any mechanical failure prior to the overturn.
A few hours ago the National Guard was again dressed in black after the loss of commando Panagiotis Gianniou after he was injured during an exercise in the Akamas sea area.
At the Ministry of Defense there is intense concern and concern over the three accidents in 13 months in the National Guard. In fact, the Minister in charge, Haralambos Petridis, in yesterday's statements and asked about the possibility of his resignation, indicated that this is before the President of the Republic.
