The Tempe case returns to the forefront and is discounted to cause a strong political confrontation after sending a file to Parliament to investigate any criminal liability of the former Ministers of Infrastructure and Transport, Kostas Karamanlis and Christos Spirtzfor incomplete supervision of bodies who were responsible for the safety of the railway and for the non -implementation of the modernization of the rail network.

The government, which the last thing it wants is to bring back scenarios for concealment moves, seems to move on the basis of the prime minister’s public commitment that it will not stand in the way of investigating any aspect of the case. Officially, the Maximus Mansion hold a standby stance and say that they will first study what they were sent to Parliament to place it on specific data.

However, yesterday the government spokesman, Paul Marinakisgave a sample of writing. Everything contributes to a repetition of the manipulations made in the Triantopoulos case. In particular, Mr. Marinakis reported (Mega) that “We are not going to stand in the way of justice” to add: “To come first, to see it, to evaluate it, to see what Justice says, what is described in this case file that is said to come and be sure that we are not going to hide our words.” Elsewhere in their placement emphasized that “What happened to Christos Triantopoulos, for me is a guide overall.”giving a first picture of the potential handling that will be selected. Of course, in order to do so, in the event of a pre -trial investigation for Kostas Karamanlis, there should be a request from the former Minister himself. For immediate referral of the case to the natural judgeas Christos Triantopoulos did.

In November 2023 ND He had rejected PASOK’s proposal to set up a pre -trial committee for Mr Karamanlis for the offense of breach of duty and the opposition had complained to concealment. The data this time is different, as the government recognizes that the impression has been damaged that the impression was made that an attempt was made to convene responsibilities and to protect specific persons. In relation to the new data and the sending of a file, it is recalled that Mr Karamanlis himself had told the House that It has nothing to hide and is not hiding.

It is clear that for the government the repetition of the process followed in the Triantopoulos case is the preferable development. The establishment of a pre -trial committee will respond to any objections for cover -up and if the same pattern is followed, the pre -trial investigation will complete its cycle with concise procedures. Thus, opposition parties will not be given the opportunity to use a long process in the House to maintain the Tempi case in the foreground and the focus of political controversy.
