The revulsion of his society Oropou has caused the incident with the published photos in which she appears ambulance crew to hose down a naked old womanin the pillared apartment building.

Mayor Giorgos Giasimakis also expressed his disgust to APE-MPE, who from the first moment ordered an EDE and as he says, he will wait for the result to take it to the prosecutor. “It is a disgusting event, which takes us back to medieval times. I am truly ashamed and there is no excuse. If I hear excuses, I will be doubly ashamed,” he said specifically.

The ambulance belongs to the municipality, but it is managed by a private company with which the municipal authority has signed a contract. “We as a municipality maintain our own ambulance because we really need it,” says Mr. Giasimakis to APE-MBE and explains: “If an incident occurs at the weekend or on a holiday, it should go to the Kapandriti Medical Center, that is to a distance of 27 km. On the other hand, we can’t wait for an ambulance from Athens, because it will take 1 to 1.5 hours to come, if it is immediately available, and they won’t know the roads if they need to go to a mountainous place, so there is a serious problem Over Time. So, we have our own ambulance and we make it available to the private company, with which we have signed the contract. Now, of course, we cannot continue working with this company when such an incident has occurred.”

Regarding this particular lady, the mayor of Oropou said that no relative of hers has been found and that a crew will go to clean her house. As for the legal actions that the municipality will take, Mr. Giasimakis replied:

“From the first moment I was informed of the sad incident, I ordered an emergency EDE. As soon as the conclusion comes out, I will immediately take it to the prosecutor and we will take whatever actions are required”.
