Despoina Kanidou, mother of Giorgos Papazoglou, testified at the trial regarding the Tempi incident that the family arrived by car at Evangelismos around 2, while the fire was still burning. She mentioned that her son's funeral took place on March 7 and that the restoration work and backfilling had been completed the day before. Kanidou said that her son's body was one of the three most dismembered and was delivered in two bags: one contained his legs and the other his heart and organs. She stated that the metallic items he had with him and his mobile phone, which she said was functioning, were not found and claimed that the items were thrown away with the soil during the restoration work. She also claimed that there were government orders to remove the soil and that the area needed to be cleared in anticipation of elections. She stated that important evidence was lost with the backfilling. She also referred to the audio of her call to 112, where she heard Frantzeska saying that she had no oxygen, and described how she was preoccupied with what the child had gone through in the last hours of his life. Regarding the absence of defendants from the courtroom, Kanidou mentioned that stationmasters and representatives of ERGOSE were missing and requested that their personal presence be ordered. She added that the defendants continued to work in the same positions. Kanidou argued that if the consortium had been declared bankrupt, contract 717 would have been completed, and she would not have lost her child. She said that extensions and additional funds were given while workers repeatedly sent legal warnings about the possibility of an accident. She stated that the problems were known to the ministry, the RAS, and OSE, and that the family had believed Mr. Karamanlis's assurances about safety. Finally, she said that in 2023, the two trains moved for 12 minutes on a collision course without any safety system working and argued that the functioning of even one system would have prevented the collision. She attributed the deaths to corruption, collusion, nepotism, and impunity. #Τέμπη #δίκη #ασφάλεια (translated)

Plakiasnikos wrote that, after 44 months of discussions about toluene, hydrazine came to the forefront. He cited revelations to a journalist, according to which the flammable substance transported by the train was hydrazine, and argued that the toluene identified at the accident site and in the state chemist came from the burning of train materials. He added that hydrazine is used as rocket fuel and estimated that it may now also be used in various types of munitions. #Υδραζίνη #Δυστύχημα #Καύσιμα (translated)

Nikos Boyiopoulos criticized journalist Zacharos for a comment he made on his show on the ONE television station regarding Erietta Molcho, who, as he stated, had been missing after the train collision in Tempi. According to Boyiopoulos, lawyer Th. Staikos, who represented the Voulgaris family in the trial for Tempi, noted on the show that Molcho had not been located. Zacharos, as Boyiopoulos wrote, questioned whether she was on the train and linked the mention of the missing persons to previous claims that there were no deaths during the Polytechnic uprising. Boyiopoulos stated that the 23-year-old Molcho was on the passenger train that collided with a freight train on the night of February 28, 2023, and that no trace of her had been found on the train. He added that her parents had attended the court in Larissa last April and had filed a motion to support the charges in the pre-trial proceedings. As he noted, after the reactions, Zacharos apologized, describing his wording as incorrect. He claimed that his intention was to offer ironic criticism of those adopting theories surrounding Tempi and had apologized to Molcho's family and the relatives of the victims. Boyiopoulos concluded his post by addressing him with a heavy insult. #Τεμπη #Πολυτεχνείο #δημοσιογραφία (translated)

Stamatios Zacharos said that his wording was incorrect and did not express irony towards Erietta Molcho nor endorse a conspiracy theory.

He apologized to those who were offended or hurt, especially to Molcho's family and the relatives of the victims. He added that he had not supported theories that question the facts or the pain of the families and that he would continue to follow the trial and comment on developments with respect for the memory of the victims. #ΕρίετταΜόλχο #Τέμπη #Συγγνώμη (translated)

Venice made a series of statements about the tragedy of the Tempi, attributing them to political figures, executives, and journalists. According to her post, Karamanlis had stated that he ensured safety, while Florinis had insulted those who spoke about "filling in." Triantopoulos, as she wrote, had used dehumanizing language regarding the victims, while a voter of Mitsotakis had used a vulgar term for the train in a discussion on Space with AML and Portosalte. Venice noted that Mitsotakis had said he did not know and was not obliged to know about the issue, had attributed the drama mainly to a tragic human error, and had characterized the best justification for the sacrifice of the children as ensuring that something similar would not happen again. Romanos had said that they found themselves expressing condolences, while Giogakos had stated that, for better or worse, people were dead. Government officials and civil protection executives had invoked the obligation to clean the area, while Kyriakos had rejected the term "filling in" and had spoken of rehabilitation. According to the same post, Georgiadis had argued that no one in society was interested in the investigation for Tempi and, in another statement, that Greeks were not interested in either the investigation or the pre-investigation. Analysts and executives, in discussions after the national elections of May and June 2023, had estimated that the political cost from Tempi was negligible. Voultepsi had described the issue as stale, Markopoulos had referred to the "cursed" committee and had said he was having fun, while Tamilos had stated that not all Trikala would cry. Venice also attributed to Voridis the position that the accident would have happened even if there had been remote control, as well as the assessment that it was a minor issue compared to what was happening on the planet. Mitsotakis had said that everyone was to blame, while Voridis had argued that names should not be recorded in the Constitution because not all places were the same. Finally, journalist Zacharos of New Democracy had raised the possibility that Eritheta was not on the train and had referred to earlier reports of missing persons at the Polytechnic, which, as he said, did not exist. #Τεμπη #Τέμπη #ασφάλεια #Ελλάδα (translated)
