The revelations that come to light continue and concern the deaths of four infants in Amaliada and the involvement of 24-year-old Irini who is allegedly connected to them.

It is recalled that she herself lost two infants, while last August the 15-month-old baby of her roommate in Amaliada died under unclear circumstances, while she was under the protection of the 24-year-old. In addition, another mother complained that her own infant also died in the hands of the 24-year-old. It is also noted that 10 years ago, at the age of 14, Irini had lost her few-month-old sister under unclear circumstances.

The press representative of the Hellenic Police spoke about the “thriller” recorded with the mysterious deaths of babies on the “Connections” program of ERT, Constantia Dimoglidou.

“It’s a very delicate case and since things have been heard in the media these days, I want to clarify some things. First let’s say that the presence of a particular person in the deaths of the children it is seen in only three deaths, in two deaths of her own children. I’m talking about a certain girl who has also made statements in the media, that’s why I’m mentioning her. As in the last death we had in August 2024, another infant that seems to have been in the presence of this woman again in the space. For two more deaths reported in the media, there is no indication that this woman was present, at least according to the preliminary investigation in the police material, that the woman was present when the children died” said Mrs. Dimoglidou.

Then he added “there are five deaths which have occupied the Media. But for whom I should clarify something. Some of these children either ended up at home, or were taken to a hospital and then ended up in the hospital. For all five of these cases the Greek Police duly formed a case file collecting pre-investigative material, certificates from the treating doctors, if the child was admitted to the Hospital and the child’s health history. For all five cases, a necropsy was performed on the children.

In other words, there is a report of the medical examiner in the case file. Only the result of some toxicological tests is pending for the last case, for the death of the infant that happened at the beginning of August again in this area and essentially the case files have been forwarded to the competent prosecutor.
So the district attorney’s office has the files on all five kids. Of course, he can re-examine a case from the beginning, that is, he can withdraw a case from the file and order other investigative actions now to the police. So far nothing like that has happened and I make that clear. We are trying to speed up the process so that the answers for the toxicology tests and for the last baby can come and the prosecutor has a complete picture. We know that an investigation has been ordered in criminal justice, but not in the Greek Police. But, in any case, the authorities are ready to provide answers to any question raised by the competent prosecutor.”

“Essentially the Media links the death of five children to the presence of this woman. However, according to preliminary investigation, the presence of this woman exists only in three cases. Her own two children and to a child of a familiar person, the one she was looking after. Essentially, we are talking about the last infant, which of course she herself has accepted during the preliminary investigation, that she was with the child, she and the child’s mother have also given a formal statement to the police.
All the pre-investigative actions foreseen when a child suddenly passes away have been carried out”.

Regarding whether this woman voluntarily went to the police station in Amaliada to testify again, Ms. Dimoglidou said “She essentially wants to give a supplementary statement, confirming what she had stated in her original statement. It is a procedure that is foreseen if a citizen wishes to give a supplementary statement, even more so in this case where the file has not been definitively closed, as we are waiting for toxicology test results”.

“In none of the five cases and in the pre-investigative material that has been handed over by the police does not appear to be the involvement of any person and does not appear to be a criminal act, at least with the data so far” Mrs. Dimoglidou pointed out.

Fill in that “there is very good cooperation with Smile of the Child when there is a complaint of either abuse or neglect of the supervision of a child. The Smile of the Child informs the local Police director immediately and actions are taken to see if a child is being abused, there is a case of domestic violence, if he is neglected by the family and of course the Police in turn informs competent agencies, social workers, Juvenile Prosecutor[…] I do not know if a case has been filed against this particular family. However, this does not appear to be the case from the child’s history.”

“Of course, when an infant suddenly passes away, there is always the suspicion of some criminal act. But when the forensic examination is clear and there is no criminal action, let alone in some of the five cases I mentioned to you, there were clear answers from the medical examiner that there were health problems in some of the infants. At least in the current phase when they lost their lives, they were facing some health problem, so there the police also rule out criminal activity, when there are no forensic indications” stressed Constantia Dimoglidou.
