"Bad parking": 90-year-old man who shot an icon painter will end up in Korydallos prison

On Tuesday evening, April 12, a 90-year-old resident of Tinos, who shot and fatally wounded a neighbor who parked in front of his house, allegedly “in his place”, was sentenced to placement in a pre-trial detention center after he testified.

According to logotypos.gr, a resident of Tinos, who confessed to the murder of the 52-year-old director of the School of Hagiography of Tinos, is expected to be transferred to Korydallos prison. On Tuesday night, an elderly man was sentenced to pre-trial detention, by unanimous decision of the prosecutor and investigator, on the grounds that there is a risk of committing a new crime.

The man confessed to his act on Sunday afternoon, saying that he constantly received provocations from the victim. “I remember taking a shotgun just for intimidation and making him stop cursing me. But I don’t remember how I pulled the trigger, ”the old man told the investigator. He referred to his advanced age, emphasizing that he had serious health problems, including senile dementia. Law enforcement agencies are requesting a psychiatric examination.

Recall, as the “Athenian News” wrote earlier, the public of the island of Tinos is shocked by what happened. An elderly man shot in cold blood the director of the School of Hagiography of the Evangelistria Foundation. The crime happened near a private house when the driver was parking in the parking lot. When the shots rang out, the neighbors ran out into the street to understand what had happened. Once at the scene of a terrible massacre, they immediately called the police.

The same information states that a 50-year-old man recently bought a house next to the oldest local resident. According to unconfirmed information, he parked near the old man’s house, as a result of which he came out with a gun and mortally wounded the “insolent man.”

According to the information, the perpetrator was a “problem man”, who was well known from this side on the quietest island. The victim is a calm, intelligent person, brought up by a family of hagiographers (icon painters). Locals say that he may have simply “fallen under a hot hand”, and it was on him that the fury of a criminal fell upon him, starting a quarrel with anyone.

The perpetrator is arrested, and the wife of the victim, who is also an icon painter, arrived at the department of the island to testify.
