Under house arrest with control from the Primary Prosecutor’s Office of his place of residence is set the head of traffic of the Larissa Inspection Directorate of the OSE, after the decision of the Appeals Council of Larisa to lift the measure of temporary detention, according to larissanet.gr.

It should be noted that the decision is effective after the payment of a guarantee of 20,000 euros while its restrictive condition also applies ban on leaving the country.

We remind you how the inspector had been remanded in custody after his confession to the appellant investigator almost a year ago and specifically on March 31. His prosecution is a felony and is related to placing the 59-year-old station master on the February 28 night shift the moment he knew that the person in question did not meet the criteria to cope with the particular post.

We remind you that the previous request for parole filed by the Inspector last spring was rejected by the Board of Appeals with the following remarks in its relevant decision:

“It is considered very likely, should he be releasedeven under restrictive conditions, that he will commit criminal acts in order to conceal the crime of which he is accused. In addition to what is mentioned in the prosecutor’s proposal, it should be noted that before this Council the appellant accused, appearing with his attorney, stated among other things that the criterion for determining the services of the station masters was their equal and equal distribution. From his statement above, in combination with the other statements of himself and his counsel, it follows that, during the appointment of the stationmaster service for the Larissa station on 2-28-2023 and for the hours after 11 p.m., no consideration was taken the minimum experience of the station master B.S. of D., for his work, which he would carry out alone, given that in a previous night duty of the same station master at the Kalambakas railway station, on 2-1-2023, the appellant was obliged , following an order from his superior to carry out the corresponding service together with the above station master since the latter did not have the corresponding experience for a railway station (i.e. Kalambaka Station) with much less traffic (especially during the night shift) compared to that of the railway Larissa station. Moreover, the above was not disputed by the appellant-accused before this Council. In addition, in addition to what is mentioned in the prosecutor’s proposal, in view of the applicant’s long tenure in his service, and the friendly and official relations he has developed with his subordinates, it is possible for him to morally commit illegal acts in order to cover up the crime for which he is charged as a felony… So to achieve the above purposei.e. the prevention of new crimes, it is not enough to impose restrictive conditionsnor house arrest with electronic surveillance (Article 284§1 CPC), which in this particular case, they are considered insufficient to promote the above purpose of the criminal preliminary proceedings, defined in paragraph 3 of article 282 of the Civil Code. and consequently it is deemed necessary to continue his temporary detention. After that, the considered appeal must be dismissed on its merits”.
