Jailed mobster testifies in organized crime case
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
Convict Panagiotis Vlastos on Tuesday appeared before the investigating magistrates for Corruption who are handling the case of the criminal organization allegedly coordinating its activities from within Korydallos prison.
Vlastos is facing heavy charges for a series of criminal acts, as he is considered – along with his inmates Yiannis Skaftouros and Vassilis Stefanakos – to have had a leading role in the ‘mob bosses’ ring.
According to sources, Vlastos admitted to the bomb attack against Trikala prosecutor Sofia Petraki, who had investigated into his attempted break out from Trikala prison by helicopter. The convict reportedly told the investigating magistrates that the attack was aimed at intimidating and denied the attack against the head of the Appeals Judges Paraskevi Kalaitzi.
According to sources, Vlastos has raised doubts over his cousin’s deposition – who is also accused and currently under protection – and describes her testimony as ‘staged’.
