A TV viewer of SKAI and Live you, who videotaped the incident, said that the specific auditor “indulges in this habit repeatedly”.

THE the president of Hellenic Train employees, Nikos Kioutsoukis, referring to the incident he emphasized that “It is not known why the controller makes these “exchanges”. I believe that the company will do the right thing when there are people who harm the company itself… Every such employee should be put out of the company. His past is burdensome. The state cannot impose good practices, but there are no good practices for private sector companies. In every European city the only thing that is done by the people of the company is the ticket control».
