Race against time for evidence revealing Vasilis Kalogirou’s route – His medical file also under scrutiny

By next week, the first results from the laboratory tests are expected, as the toxicological analysis will have been completed

Newsroom February 22 08:39

Authorities believe that the location where 39-year-old Vasilis Kalogirou was found in Perachora, Tyrnavos, has yielded all the evidence it could offer, leading to his release. Shortly before, the family’s technical consultant, who participated in the psychologist’s autopsy, visited the site for the first time.

Now, investigations are focusing on identifying the most likely route Vasilis Kalogirou took to reach the steep slope of the hill where he was found dead.

Three recording devices from security cameras were located along this suspected route.

Police sources told protothema.gr that the most probable route he followed was along the banks of the Pineios River. This is a rural area that inherently provides little evidence. However, forensic laboratories will attempt to retrieve footage from these recording devices to determine whether the 39-year-old appears in any of the videos.

At the same time, a request has been made to lift the telecommunications privacy in the broader area during the period of his disappearance. This process will reveal who was near the location where Vasilis Kalogirou’s body was found.

Additionally, his medical file has been requested to examine the history of his prescribed medications. A forensic analysis of his fingernails found no foreign DNA.

Yesterday, a stir was caused by a letter requesting recusal, submitted by Ms. Roubini Leontari, following a social media post by Ms. Maria Karistianou, who directly named her, accusing her of a brutal character assassination via the internet. However, it is not certain whether the Larissa Prosecutor’s Office will grant her request.

Toxicology Results Incoming

By next week, the first results from the laboratory tests are expected, as the toxicological analysis will have been completed. The histological tests may reach the authorities’ hands a week later, helping to complete the puzzle of this case.

Meanwhile, next week, the three members of the 39-year-old’s family are expected to testify, providing information on individuals they suspect of murdering Vasilis Kalogirou.

Finally, testimonies continue from residents of Perachora, the area where the 39-year-old was found dead.
