A surprise search of two shops owned in Athens by the former employer of the 22-year-old arrested as the mastermind behind the double murder in Finikounda on October 5 was conducted early this afternoon by police officers following orders from the Kalamata Investigating Magistrate handling the case. The double search was carried out to locate evidence related to the double murder, following analysis of phone record lifts and other evidence that emerged from the police and judicial investigation that followed the double homicide.
Finikounda: First call after the murder was to the 22-year-old’s former employer
It should be noted that the nephew of the camping site co-owner and near-victim in the same bloody incident called the 22-year-old’s former employer using his partner’s mobile phone, allegedly to report what was happening. The first call made by the man who was nearly shot was to this specific individual, with whom they maintain close relations.
The former employer of the 22-year-old defendant, accused as the physical perpetrator of the double murder, has already given testimony to the Kalamata Investigating Magistrate who has taken over the investigation of this high-profile case, providing his own explanations regarding what he knew about the incident. He stated that he knew nothing until he received a call on his mobile phone from the nephew of the deceased co-owner. The search ordered by the Kalamata Investigating Magistrate, according to police sources with knowledge of the case investigation, clearly aims to gather specific evidence from before the double murder in Finikounda.
