Vaios Vlachos’ father, Christos who initially spoken, stressed that families are giving a struggle for truth and justice. “No truth, no version is convenient for us. The truth is relentless. It has 57 names. Victims of corruption and indifference of this state. We are looking for everything. But we arrived to look in the fields. And we are looking for everything means that what we find must be real. To prove and to be scientifically supported. If we stay in theories, then we serve those responsible, the defendants, the government of concealment that did not respect the dead and those who exploit the dead for their political self -sacrifices. ” He stressed while referring to the volunteer effort he has started by Katerini to create volunteer groups in every city to support families in the trial to follow.

“It’s been two years and some months and we are all looking to find out what is going on, we have all disagreed with each other.

Put the people to quarrel between him and let’s never go to look for what is going on … “stressed Tasos Koutsopoulos’ brother, George for thanking all those attending for their support.

Thanks for the people who support them, Mr. Nick. Plakas who lost his two daughters and his niece at the Tempe railway accident, while stressing that developments lately in the investigation of the case create a climate of suspicion ” why not happen all this two years ago, because now we could not talk to us, Families closing their ears on research and staying away from the parties expressing reservations about their attitude.

” Our enemy is not just the government. It is the whole political spectrum of the Greek state. We are talking about low intelligence people, people who are inadequate, people who only look at the political chair. Personally, I have completely distanced themselves from all political parties. ‘

There was a discussion with the public who addressed questions to relatives about the course of the research and the attitude they themselves adhere to with Messrs. Plakia and Vlach to declare, among other things, convinced of the absence of suspicious load and to be over the version that the explosion and ignition are due to the oils of transformers, which they themselves consider to maximize the government’s responsibility for the fact that the trains continue to operate.
