Among other things, the mother of Thanasis states that the specialized examinations of the bones carried out by scientists, pathologists from abroad “proved the real cause of death beyond doubt”.
From tomorrow, Thursday, the Supreme Court judges will have the objection of the family of Thanasis Nikolaos, to the application of the medical examiner Panikos Stavrianou for annulment of the conclusion of the coroner, who ruled that the death of the 26-year-old national guard, in 2005, came from criminal action.
This is what the mother of Thanasis, Andriana Nikolaou, says in her post today, in the MKD, expressing the hope that “at last (the judges) will see the truth with a clear mind and collegiality and will understand that behind all this something else is hidden and they will allow justice to be delivered, as befits a state of law”.
Posting a photo of Thanasis with his siblings, Andriana Nikolaou speaks of the “indiscriminate murder” of her son, after what happened in the unit he served in and of a titanic and costly struggle, which “became the occasion to expose the corrupt system and its functionaries”.
Among other things, Thanasis' mother states that the specialized examinations of the bones carried out by scientists, pathologists from abroad “proved the real cause of death that we have been looking for for so many years, that it is strangulation and not from a fall as the perpetrator of our martyrdom still claims fight”.
From tomorrow, he adds, the family's objection “to the inadmissible request of the person involved to annul the finding”, will be in the hands of the judges of the Supreme Court.
