The OPEN today was invited by the PASOK Change Press Spokesman, Kostas Tsoukalas. Initially, discussing PASOK’s proposal to set up a pre -trial committee for Kostas Karamanlis, Mr. Tsoukalas explained that «Any offense, in conjunction with Article 15 of the Criminal Code, can also be committed by omission, especially by persons who, due to jurisdiction, have a particular legal obligation.or”, while noting that «The leadership of the Ras, which the government cites, is appointed by the Minister of Transport. So the fact that the jurisdiction belonged exclusively to Ras is completely inaccurate. Is the minister just to cut ribbons?».
He also recalled that ‘the A preliminary committee is a preliminary committee and will come to evaluate whether a criminal prosecution should be brought to Mr Karamanlis. The New Democracy says “no” from the changing rooms and asks not to talk about the possible criminal acts. “
He then described that the possible deception concerns that ‘He was aware of K. Karamanlis a series of evidence, as Ras informed him two years before that there was insecurity on the railways and called for interventions, and four days before the same principle sends him a document and tells him that there is a risk because trains were observed in incorrect and opposite orbit. That is, what happened in the accident. Mr Tsalidis also sent him a document in 2021. There are documents showing that the minister has become a society by various officials and by Ras, not by a simple citizen, of the enormous security problems. “
He made it clear that at the PASOK-Motion Change “We are not saying that he predicted and accepted the possibility of deaths. If we were to say this, we would ask to be checked for homicide. We say to be checked on the basis of Article 291 if it could predict and prevent disturbance, if the possibility of disturbance as a result of its inactivity was accepted.
There is the fine line between possible deception and conscious negligence. Conscious negligence means that, although it had the evidence, it did not think it could happen. This is a matter of evidence that can start and take place in the debate in the pre -trial, but the government wants in advance. “
In fact, to the question of the Deputy Minister of Migration and Asylum Sevis Voloudakis who participated in the same panel, how the minister can be checked when they were checked because they may not be informed as he should, Kostas Tsoukalas replied: “Let us not forget how Mr Karamanlis’ name has reached the House. It came precisely because these officials referred to, came and produced documents with protocol numbers showing that they had informed him. It will be evaluated if Karamanlis or them tells the truth. How will this release be done? If the pre -trial investigation works. That’s why we ask for it. So, this part of the government’s leak is completely wrong. “
Commenting on what the government argues about Mr. Karamanlis’ sole administrative responsibility, the PASOK-Machine Press spokesman wondered: “If he had only administrative responsibility and does not have a safety duty, for what breach of duty would they go for, as it leaks? Here we have terrible contradictions. The New Democracy, because it cannot degrade our own proposal, it contradicts what it has already done or what it will do. “
Asked about the views expressed by lawyers in the public sphere, Mr. Tsoukalas made it clear that “wellI will not evaluate any lawyers, everyone is excellent colleagues, but that doesn’t mean we have the same view. Any article referring to acts when there is an obligation to prevent acts is also checked for omissions. Therefore, pursuant to Article 291 and in conjunction with Article 15 of the Criminal Code for those who have a particular legal obligation on the basis of competence or competence, obviously the crime can be committed by omission. “.
At the same time, clarifying the reasons why the prime minister’s name is not included in the PASOK proposal, the spokesman stressed that “Our proposal is solid and concerns those for whom a special legal obligation is formed. The prime minister has no direct responsibility for transport.
Nikos Androulakis said that we are going to those who have been based on the Government Gazette either responsibility or competence. The Prime Minister’s special jurisdiction is not revealed by the GGS. Karamanlis comes from the Government Gazette for transport and security. We are not talking about political responsibility. We have attributed this to the Prime Minister in all tones. Here we come with a proposal that can stand in court. Why do we not ask Mr Karamanlis to be referred to homicide? Because it cannot be easily proven in a court that it had predicted the possibility of deaths. While the disturbance could, on the basis of the data that have been contributed to the process. We will not be bidding for who will be more anti -government. We don’t care about becoming an arena. We care with elements to become a serious process for the truth to shine. Neither are we interested in caressing the ears of people who are reasonably rage, nor will we obviously have a silence as the ND wants not to evaluate the responsibilities of its ministers.
We want on the basis of what justice and laws provide for adequate control. And that also differentiates us from all the other forces. “
Finally, Kostas Tsoukalas estimated that, based on the leaks of the New Democracy, “In essence, we are told that Mr. Karamanlis was decorative as a minister, he had no responsibility and they are adopting a peculiar irresponsible claiming that he could not be referred because he had no responsibility. So are all ND ministers irresponsible?
Do you know who signs him? OSE and the Ministry of Transport. Not Ras. RAS cannot fail to give security approval if there is a general regulation of movement. They are laws. Don’t get us too. “
