The father of one of those arrested for the bloody incidents outside the AEK stadium in New Philadelphia in the early hours of August 8, spoke to Croatian television and revealed that his son, who suffers from diabetes, had come to Greece without his knowledge .

“He said he went to a colleague in Zagreb who finished school there and plays football, I think for Rudeš or Gorica, I don’t know exactly. He said he would be there for a few days, so I gave him 40 euros to have them.”

“I contacted him again on Monday at 12:30. He told me that he was at a colleague’s house, that he had woken up and was going to take a bath and eat something. However, I called him around 14:30 but a Greek secretary answered. I came to the conclusion that something was wrong.”

According to the father of the 18-year-old defendant, he realized what was happening when he saw his son in a photo on the Internet, when he was getting off the police bus.

“I told him seven days before the game that he is high risk, don’t dream of going. You have our own matches where Dynamo plays, go to them freely. I told him don’t even dream of going to Greece.”

At the same time, the internal investigation of EL.AS is ongoing. regarding the omissions that led to the murder of the 29-year-old and the attribution of responsibility to those responsible. The first witness statements have already been received from the internal affairs service, while in the next few hours police officers who were involved in the operations on Monday night will be called.
