Justice ordered the investigation into the deaths of Malena and Iris from the beginning because there were problems in trying to re-evaluate the data, as the panel of forensic experts was informal and had no legitimacy to have access to valuable material.
The paradox and frustrating thing is that hospitals and coroners did not give the data to this committee to proceed with the investigation, which has shocked the entire public, and stood by the letter of the law. It is characteristic that the Athens forensic committee was only investigating Malena's death, informally until now, because allegedly Patras had not sent evidence to Athens, while now the prosecutor's order is binding.
Two experienced forensic experts of Athens, the head of the forensic service Nikos Karakukakis and Nikos Kalogrias are called to draw a safe conclusion about the real causes of death of the two children, where they will have the right and access to any evidence they deem necessary.
"Those involved have rightly lost sleep" says Takis Theodoricakos
Minister of Citizen Protection, Takis Theodoricakos revealed that there is serious evidence of the deaths of the two other children from the Patras case and made it clear that no one is exempt from the law.
"The case is shocking. No human mind can cope with what has happened. It is an opportunity through this tragedy to highlight two messages that are certainly of interest to all citizens: We have a very high-level police force, there are best practices that are being followed, there is the Criminal Investigation Department with 400 specialised officers investigating the case. Have no doubt that in this crime as in a number of others in recent times, in recent months, we will get to the whole truth and whoever or whoever is guilty of any murderous act will be brought to justice. There is serious evidence. The investigation is complex, it is thorough and no one should doubt that it will be absolutely effective. Those involved I think have rightly lost sleep over it. Provided, of course, that they have a basic awareness of what has happened. Let's keep something that I'm sure will stick, citizens trusting the police, trusting the state authorities and everyone knowing something, no one gets away from the law. We are determined to put this message into practice on all fronts, as in this difficult and tragic case."
Lawyer Katerina Mavroidis in a Facebook post explains why the father of the three girls in Patras, Manos Daskalakis, constantly states that he did not understand a thing about his ex-wife and accused Roula Pispirigou.
"All these days many people are shocked by the interview of the father of the three children
and ask me how it is possible that he did not understand anything about the events concerning the accused and at the same time he stresses that she was a perfect mother.
My legal opinion is the following:
It is natural and logical for him to make and adopt these allegations because he believes that this is how he is protected.
Because if he tells the truth, he risks the crime of endangerment.
According to an article of the criminal code, whoever puts a minor in danger who is under his care and has a duty to care for and nurture him is punishable by imprisonment. However, if death occurs, as in this case, it is punishable by imprisonment of up to ten years. Therefore, the question is solved why he presents everything perfectly."
