The Hellenic Train was fired yesterday by the trade unionist Costas Genidounias, who – as a former president of drivers – had revealed and informed then Minister of Infrastructure and Transport Konstantinos Karamanlis, that there may be a railway tragedy.

The trade unionist was fired while the case file had arrived in Parliament.

Speaking this morning to ANT1, Costas Genidounias said he knew nothing about his dismissal and denounced “interventions” so as not to talk about the Tempi.

“I do not know why I was fired, the day before I had filed my candidacy for drivers president. Yesterday returning from my work, I saw my dismissal in my house. They do not invoke the reasons for my dismissal. I had no information. ”

In the question of George Papadakis if the reasons for the dismissal are vindictive, Mr. Genidounias replied: “It can be suffered too.”

He even said that the interventions were enough to not talk about the Tempe tragedy: “There were interventions -” strong recommendation “lately – not to speak, not to refer to Tempi, not to interview but not to talk to relatives. There was no reason for the paper that was notified to me. I really believe that the problem was that I re -nominated for drivers president. “

As for his next steps, he stressed: “I’m talking to my lawyers.”
