It’s only a matter of time before the truth is revealed about the man who pulled the trigger and murdered in cold blood the co-owner of the well-known “Ammos” camping site in Finikounda and the business manager in Finikounda, Messinia last Sunday evening, estimate homicide department officers. The investigation into this high-profile case is in full swing, and experienced police officers believe they are on the right track, analyzing each piece of the puzzle one by one and filling in the gaps.
Finikounda camping murder: Victims’ funerals today and tomorrow
Today, Thursday, the funeral of Vasilis Giannopoulos, the unfortunate camping site manager, is expected to take place in his hometown of Makrisia, Ilia at 3:30 PM at the Holy Church of Saint Nicholas. Tomorrow, Friday, the cremation of Kostas Tomaras will take place at the Ritsona Crematorium. This was the wish of the well-known architect for years, as he had made it clear to those close to him.
Cameras and testimonies
Officers from Athens’ homicide department play a leading role in the investigation due to their experience in handling such cases. They were called in to assist Messinia police due to the complexity of the case. The motives have not yet been clarified and all possibilities remain open. In contrast, the search for the perpetrator appears to be on the right track. The police investigation is bearing fruit through the analysis of security cameras and testimonies taken from people in the wider circle of both the business co-owner Kostas Tomaras and the camping site manager. The forensic examination conducted at the Corinth morgue provided some specific directions regarding the murderer’s profile. A man characterized as ruthless, whose arrest, when the time comes, will be carried out with particular caution since it’s clear he will try to resist and naturally won’t hesitate to draw his weapon. He has already killed two people in cold blood without hesitation, even delivering a coup de grâce to the unfortunate Kostas Tomaras. The first bullet from the revolver struck the camping site co-owner in the chest, then he approached and shot him in the head, delivering what experts call a “mercy shot.” He then turned the weapon and pulled the trigger three times, killing the business manager who had already started running to escape. Fortunately, the executioner’s accuracy and bullets ran out, and the nephew escaped by sheer luck. He is the son of Kostas Tomaras’s brother. The two brothers built the business from scratch, and after his father’s death, the son took over his father’s share and participated in the business.
His testimony to the authorities provided significant information about the killer but also raised a series of new questions.
