OASA raises alarm for bus attacks
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
A security alarm hasraised at transportation authority OASA and police (ELAS) after a total of six attacks against buses since last Saturday.
"We do not know what is going on if it's a kid who does it for a game or someone with psychological problems," OASA Workers' Union organizational secretary, Christos Fotis, told radio station 104.6. According to him, attacks are usually carried out in the evening and "near underground passages so the perpetrators can escape."
He also expressed the hope that the perpetrators would be arrested "before we have something more serious than minor injuries". As he pointed out, "When talking about metal pellets, it's not just the glass but also the chance of pellet hitting a passenger or the driver."
The last attack was on Tuesday night at Syngrou Avenue, at Agios Sostis, on the bus line 136 "Nea Smyrni-Sygrou-Fix Metro". At the same time, yesterday evening, persons unknown threw an object at a train at the station in Petralona, resulting in a woman injured in the eye, who was transferred to the Gennimatas hospital.
For two weeks there have been 14 attacks on buses. At the same time, due to the multiple attacks in the area of Kamatero, the Anthoupolis-Kamatero route has been interrupted for the time being.
