In a signed statement, the residents of Kythira declare that they disagree with the authorities' position on the management of the shipwreck investigation. It should be noted that today the body of a missing person floating at the site of the Diakofto shipwreck. Read the announcement below:
The hubris continues
Twenty-five days after the “thorough” investigations by our self-awarded Coast Guard, and after the relatives of the drowned found the last missing person on their own, with a simple approach to the scene of the tragedy, we saw a body floating forgotten among the debris from above.
With the best weather conditions for many days now.
At the exact spot of the tragedy, 550 meters from the Coast Guard Station.
With the super expensive boats—which aren't enough for us, so we'll get more—moored in the sunshine a little further away.
The authorities' stance does not represent us. It humiliates us.
Insulting the dead has always been considered an act of hubris.
No, we, the residents of Kythira, disagree.
