The investigations into the case of the death of the three children in Patras, which has shocked the whole of Greece, continue at a rapid pace.
According to the latest information, the microscope of the authorities is expected to put, apart from Roula Pispirigou and Manos Daskalakis, also their relatives.
At the same time it should be mentioned that an order was given to prepare from the beginning, a new forensic report - conclusion on the causes of the two deaths, which occurred in a period of 20 months, of 3.5-year-old Malena, in July 2019 and just 6 months old Iris, in March 2020.
Investigation from the beginning
As reported by pelop.gr, in the context of the urgent preliminary examination, conducted by the experienced prosecutors Antonis Eleftherianos and Apostolos Andreou, an order was given to prepare from the beginning, a new forensic report - conclusion on the causes of the two deaths, which occurred in a period of 20 months, of 3.5 years old Malena, in July 2019 and just 6 months old Iris, in March 2020, examining all the data with the primary one of criminal action.
At the same time, the full medical records, the diagnoses of the treating doctors and the results of the tests to which the unfortunate Malena had undergone, whose death was attributed to liver failure, should be transmitted to the prosecutors. As for the case of Iris, who died in her cot in the couple's house in Patras, the calls to the ambulance for her evacuation will be sought, as well as the relevant documents of the hospital to which she was taken.
The two prosecutors are also starting a new cycle of testimonies, calling again all the persons who have been examined by the police as witnesses, including doctors and nurses. People from the couple's relatives are expected to be called next.
Relatives are being examined
Meanwhile, the circle of people who will be examined is "opened", as relatives of Manos and Roula in Athens are called.
Speaking to ERT, lawyer Anthoula Anasoglou said: "the coroner for Iris has put in a footnote the pulmonary edema and there were tests that were almost ready when the third child died. And additional tests were requested and the parents were called to explain to them that something was wrong. There are several pieces of evidence that are coming to light. We are convinced that the deaths were not pathological. Doctors had been concerned since the second child.
There are two faces to the infant's death. In three children we generally have more than one face. A key person is the defendant's sister. The times given in the statements do not match the death of the infant. As with the other events. At the same time, we have a permanent absence and indifference of the father, which does not mean his complicity. The role and participation is before the act or during. What motivated the doctors in Patras is how it is possible that no member of the family was aware of it."
What forensic scientist Dimitris Galenteris said
Meanwhile, forensic scientist Dimitris Galenteris said: "The deaths were registered as pathological and there were no registered blood and urine samples from the autopsy, we will not be able to do a new toxicology test. The evidence that exists so far will be examined in a new light after the study of the 9-year-old's tablet.
After the death of the third child, the investigation was done in a different light and that is why ketamine was found, because if we went to investigate a pathological death, there would not be an extensive toxicology examination. The death of the third child was the opening trigger for us to be able to understand what was going on.
It was extremely difficult in the first death to think that you have to think that it might have been murder and the mother might have been involved."
