The grief for his parents and his brother, who is also a police officer, who serves in the MAT at the Achaia Police Department, is unspeakable.
The Hellenic Police mourns together with Patras for the death of the 29-year-old police officer of the DIAS team, Christos Kourouniotis from Demenika.
He died in the early hours of Monday 18/12/2023 during a pursuit in Athens-Corinthafter a car theft report from Nikaia Attica, with his 32-year-old colleague being intubated in hospital.
The grief for his parents and his brother, who is also a police officer, is unspeakable, who according to pelop.gr information serves in the MAT at the Achaia Police Department. For them time stopped just before the end, when the thread of life was cut while serving for their only Christ.
The 29-year-old, from the day he was admitted to the ELAS Corps as a special guard, served in Athens in the DIAS group. His father works in a factory of the Vipe Patras and his mother as a nurse’s assistant in a hospital in the city.
“I can’t say anything now. What can I say now about my child… Where will I find a way to live? Who will bring my child back to me?’ declared the delighted father.
“He lost his life for a day’s wages, too bad” monologued his neighbors, when they were informed of the evil mantato. Yesterday, the neighborhood was silent, faces bowed and eyes tearful for the lost young man. All who knew him have a good word to say about him, not because he “should” but because he is. “Christos was one of the best kids,” they say. “He was very soft-spoken, a professional, just like his brother,” an officer of the local ELAS describes to “P”.
The motorcycle he was riding with his 32-year-old colleague collided with an oncoming patrol car, which came to an abrupt halt when the driver of the pursued vehicle made a dangerous maneuver. As a result, the father’s uniform “goes off” and his passenger is seriously injured. One of the perpetrators was arrested.
“Another Greek police officer at the altar of duty, trying to protect society from criminal elements” said Deputy Citizen Protection G. Economouexpressing sincere condolences to his family.
“He fell at the altar of duty. And yet, the profession of a police officer is not dangerous… Shame and only shame” said the president of the police in his online post Union of Police Officers of Achaia (EAWA) of Haris Tsitsikas.
“No more sacrifices of young people on duty” said the Achaean MP SYRIZA-PS Andreas Panagiotopoulos.
For “perpetual government responsibilities related to its inconsistency and intransigence, with all that this entails for the lifelong training of police officers and their operational readiness” spoke the members of the PASOK-KINAL Citizen Protection Sector Yiannis Tapeinos and Athanasios Athanasopoulos
He also issued a statement of condolence for the premature death of the 29-year-old the mayor of Patreon Kostas Peletidis.
The funeral of Christos Kourouniotis will be held on Wednesday at 2pm. in the holy church of Agia Triad Kallithea Patras.
