And is there a wolf in this case?&#8221;<\/b>, asked Thanasis Liggeridis, father of the unfortunate policeman.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"2\">His complaint and his anger that the trial for the Renti incidents is not covered by most of the media, expressed once again the father of George Liggeridis. &#8220;<b>This trial I do not know by whom and how and who they fear<\/b>. <b data-path-to-node=\"2\" data-index-in-node=\"260\">It is not getting the publicity it should. Not what I want as a father<\/b>&#8211; what my society wants. My Greece. If they want my Greece, our Greece, to turn it into Venezuela, it&#8217;s their problem to go to Venezuela.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"3\">For months now, the meetings have been held in Korydallos prison. So far the pleas of the family of the unfortunate policeman <b data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"137\">to move the trial to a courtroom of the Court of Appeal<\/b> have not been heeded.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"4\">&#8220;I see that no one is responding to this request. We continue to come to Korydallos. I wonder why they don&#8217;t do that. <b data-path-to-node=\"4\" data-index-in-node=\"128\">Why don&#8217;t they change our room? What are they afraid of? Who are they protecting?<\/b> What is behind this trial? Who are they covering up for? What is going on?&#8221; the mother of the unfortunate police officer asked.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"5\">The surprise and anger of the officer&#8217;s mother was caused by a witness who testified in court that, although there was a doctor at the stadium, he had not been informed to help Liggeridis who was burning from the naval flare. &#8220;There were doctors inside and my own child was bleeding out in the street and there was no doctor to come out to give first aid. <b data-path-to-node=\"5\" data-index-in-node=\"380\">It took half an hour for the ambulance to arrive and a man was fainting<\/b> and burning there in the street. Let them all come and answer me. Did they not hear that there was a man giggling outside? How is their heart?&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"6\">The relatives of Giorgos Liggeridis speak of <b data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"4\">false statements that underestimate the intelligence of the court<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"7\">&#8220;They had lit a fire in a garbage bin. <b data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"47\">We put our heads above it because the smoke dissolves the tear gas&#8221;<\/b>, a fan said.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"8\">&#8220;They were choking on the tear gas and they lit a fire to drown. <b data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"62\">May I put it in simple folk expression, like mice?&#8221;<\/b>, noted Thanasis Liggeridis.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"9\">A request to the court <b data-path-to-node=\"9\" data-index-in-node=\"22\">to order the defendants to be present in person at the trial<\/b>, although they are represented by their lawyers, was submitted by the parents of the unfortunate policeman through their lawyers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The lawyers of the family of the accused submitted to the court a request for the defendants to attend the trial sessions of the Renti riots.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9866,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9865","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-greece"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9865","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=9865"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9865\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/9866"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=9865"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=9865"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=9865"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
