Shocking developments continue in the murder case of the Polish professor that horrified public opinion, as the brother of 43-year-old Premislav Jeziorski makes a public appeal to the competent authorities, requesting permission for his brother’s two minor children to travel to Poland. His new intervention comes just hours after news of the death of the Polish professor’s ex-wife in Korydallos prison, where she was being held after being charged with moral complicity in his murder. In this particularly heavy atmosphere, the children’s uncle describes in dramatic terms the situation experienced by the two 12-year-old twins, who continue to be housed in a minor protection facility almost one year after their father’s murder.
Polish professor: His brother’s heartbreaking appeal
Lukas, brother of the murdered professor, immediately traveled to Greece following the latest developments to stand by the children. In his new statement, he describes the moments he spent with them and conveys their desire to leave Greece and return to Poland.
As he characteristically states: “I spent yesterday supporting them. They are very attached to me, they want to leave for Poland even tomorrow. The main topic of conversation is what they want to pack for the trip and when they will be able to meet their friends.” The description that follows captures the emotional state of the two children. He explains that little Zoe is eager to return to see the kittens that were born a few days ago, while Angelos expressed in a particularly touching way his desire to leave the facility where he is staying.
Polish professor: “The situation is dramatic, especially for the children”
In his statement, Lukas describes the difficult position he finds himself in when trying to explain to the children why he cannot take them with him immediately. “Zoe really wants to see the kittens that were born 3 days ago… Angelos grabbed my hand and begged me to take him, saying he doesn’t want to be here anymore. What should I tell the children? How do I explain to them that I can’t take them? How do I explain why they must continue to stay here against their will?” he states characteristically.
He then adds: “The situation is dramatic – mainly for the children, but also for the entire family. I don’t know what else needs to happen for the children to be allowed to leave for Poland. I ask, I literally beg for permission to be granted for the children to depart.” This appeal comes at a time when the family is trying to manage a new tragedy that has been added to an already difficult case. The two children, aged 12, have remained in a minor protection facility for eleven months, while the family in Poland wishes to take care of them and reintegrate them into their family environment.
Latest developments in the case
This new public intervention is directly connected to the death of the Polish professor’s ex-wife. The woman had been referred to trial facing charges of moral complicity in the 43-year-old’s murder. According to information that has become known, she apparently committed suicide in Korydallos prison, where she was being held. The same information states that she left behind a note addressed to her twin children, through which she expressed the love and pride she felt for them.
These developments have created an even heavier emotional burden for the children and the Polish professor’s family, who continue to seek a solution to the issue of their relocation to Poland, so they can be close to their relatives and attempt to rebuild their lives after a series of tragic events.
