In an atmosphere of heartbreak, the last goodbye to the unfortunate child who died in the school yard – The investigation continues to clarify the circumstances that led to the tragedy
The tragedy with the victim of 11-year-old Vassilis, a student of the last grade at the 9th Primary School of Serres, is now taking the path of Justice. A moment before the heartbreaking final farewell to the child, the police proceeded to arrest the two responsible of the project of converting a heating burner into a geothermal heat pump, which are now being taken to the prosecutor, while at the same time the investigation continues to fully clarify what happened and what led to the unimaginable tragedy.
At the same time, however, a blame war broke out between the municipality of Serres and the school, with the mayor of Serres Alexander Chrysafi to assign responsibilities to the principal of the 9th primary school but also to contractor of the work on the tragic event,
It is recalled that speaking to APE-MPE, a short time after the tragic event, the director of the school, Nikolaos Tsiotsios, claimed that he had never received any document regarding the project execution plan and that he had refused from the beginning the energy upgrade of the school building. group. He also said that he had asked for any technical work to be done on Saturday and not during school hours, however, as he pointed out, he was not listened to by anyone involved. He also mentioned that the geothermal upgrade project in question presented many problems and was late to be completed.
The mayor of Serres maintains, however, that the safety of the project was ensured on the part of the Municipality and speaking to APE-MPE he emphasizes that “in the contract of the project with the contractor it is expressly and unequivocally emphasized that which technical works will not be carried out during operating hours of the school unit or if they will be done then the consent of either the director or the municipality is required”. This, however, as he points out, did not happen as “we did not give any permission and in fact we were unaware that the technical crew would be visiting the school».
In fact, he brings as an example the 12th primary school where similar work is being carried out there as well, noting characteristically that “the contractor’s technical crew shortly after the completion of the work at the 9th primary school and long before the explosion, also visited the 12th primary school. There the manager did not allow him to enter. He told the technicians to come on Saturday to make the arrangements, as stipulated in their contract.” He also claims that he had no information that the principal of the 9th grade accepted for the crew to enter the school premises and carry out work.
However, the police proceeded with the two arrests for the offenses of negligent homicide, negligent grievous bodily harm and negligent explosion.
These are the people in charge of the project to convert a heating burner into a geothermal heat pump in a primary school in the city of Serres, where yesterday afternoon an explosion occurred in the school’s boiler room, resulting in the fatal injury of one student and the injury of two more school students.
The society of Serres, however, remains in a state of shock and said goodbye to 11-year-old Vassilis in a heartbreaking atmosphere.
