Today marks one year since the tragic incident and the horrific murder of Aris’ 19-year-old friend, Alki Kampanou.
Through an emotional message, the “yellow” OEM, referred to the young man’s murder, stressing that everyone in the team’s basketball department will always play for him as well.
The announcement of KAE Aris in detail:
“Like today, a year ago, our blood “froze”. Nobody likes fake news, but we wished with all our hearts that the information we had received was something like this. Unfortunately it wasn’t…
Twenty minutes after sunrise in February, Alkis Kampanos fell dead on Gazi Street, the victim of a cold-blooded murder by people who want to define themselves as “people”, “sports fans”, “fans”. Miraculously, we didn’t mourn other victims that night, but the death of Alki alone shocked the foundations, not only of ARIS’s family, but of the entire Greek society. Is this the sport we want?
Today, a year later, it all seems like it happened yesterday. Going up Plastira Street, to turn onto Akliviadis Kampanou Street, all the horrific images that made you lose sleep for a long time pass before your eyes…
A.S. ARIS held a vigil in memory of Alkis Kampanos, today (01/02) in the morning, at the place of the murder. Present, members from the entire club family. KAE ARIS could not be missing. Led by the chairman of the Board of Directors, Haris Papageorgiou, a strong delegation of KAE attended the trisago. There was the general manager, Vangelis Frydas, the coach, Yiannis Kastritis, the team manager, Christos Tapoutos and the basketball players Stavros Schizas, Giorgos Fillios, Vassilis Christidis.
All of them left a flower in Alki’s memory and silently mourned his untimely loss. In the hope that we do not mourn another victim, that other parents’ lives do not “end” with the loss of their child, because he supports a group. “Don’t hit me again” rings and will ring like a bell forever. The point is that it doesn’t stop being “heard”.
Alki, may your “sacrifice” not go to waste.
You will always be by our side, with us, in the stands of “Nick Galis Hall”. We play and we will play for you too.”
