At a pivotal point are the police investigations to identify the main core of the hooligans who acted in the bloody fight in Rentis, as well as their leader. The authorities are trying to piece together the puzzle of the hooligans’ movements on Thursday night, since they now have key statements from people who were present at the incidents, including the manager of a famous trapper, who was the first person the 18-year-old informed about the policeman’s injury, as he admitted in his Tuesday statement before the authorities.

The role of the 26-year-old trapper manager

From the statements of the 26-year-old, the authorities have moved forward to some conclusions while at the same time they try to provide answers to key questions. Specifically, according to what he transmitted the journalist of SKAI, Panagiotis Spyropoulos in the main news bulletin Authorities are investigating how important the 26-year-old’s role was in the incidents and even in equipping the fans. In addition, it appears from the 26-year-old’s statements ambiguity as to the alibi which he gives as to the hours, saying he was in a cafe after fleeing the stadium and knew nothing of the incidents

According to a report by SKAI, the 26-year-old appears in 4 other court cases as it is flagged for cases of sports violence.

Pressures and threats on the 18-year-old’s family

In the meantime, the parents of the 18-year-old attacker who threw the naval flare at the policeman claimed to the policemen that they receive threats on their personal phones as well, even for their child’s life in case he speaks.

They hire goons to cause trouble

At the same time, SKAI revealed that the “hooligan” file contains at least 4 case files who report that hired thugs with a daily salary of 50 euros are hired by leaders of links to cause incidents and carry out attacks on the orders of leaders of links.

The “keys” to arrests

The authorities are collecting as much information as they can in order to find the person who supplied the 18-year-old with the naval flare.

The DNA results as well as the fingerprints on objects and evidence such as those that they tried to burn in the toilets and others that have been found in the possession of the accused are “key” evidence for the authorities. Answers are expected to be given by the removal of the confidentiality of the communications for the time being for the 18-year-old, while it is expected that a removal order will be given in other cases as well if deemed necessary for the progress of the investigation.

Gunpowder was found in the hands of the 18-year-old

The results of the gunpowder test on the fingers of the 18-year-old who admitted to throwing the flare at the unfortunate policeman during the events in Rentis are also positive. The test result confirms what the young man claimed, namely that he used a flare. However, what remains is if gunpowder is also found in the 26-year-old trapper manager. During his arraignment the police officers took the clothes he was allegedly wearing when he brought the banners as he claimed to the stadium. Finding her will be a clue to whether she is the same person who armed the strike team with naval flares and Molotov cocktails.
