Relatives of Tempe victims submit new legal notice to parliamentary panel

[InTime News]

A new legal notice has been sent by relatives of two victims of the 2023 Tempe railway disaster to the president and members of the parliamentary investigative committee examining former minister Christos Triantopoulos’ role in the handling of the disaster site.

The legal complaint, signed by Christos Konstantinidis, husband of Vasiliki Chlorou, a passenger on train IC62, and Aikaterini Tselepi–Voutsina, sister of Ioannis Voutsinas, who was on the same train, states that the relatives of the victims will not stop their fight until all those involved in the landfilling of the site are brought to justice.

This is the second legal notice sent to the committee by the victims’ relatives. It follows a notice issued on Wednesday by Maria Karystianou, president of the Tempe victims’ association, which criticized Triantopoulos’ decision to waive his parliamentary immunity.

The legal notice describes his request as an “act of utmost cowardice” and warns that if the committee proceeds with fast-track procedures, it would constitute a “subversion of the Constitution,” leading to the “complete invalidation” of the proceedings.
