The relatives of the 12-year-old girl who was killed in Rentis, as she was run over by a car, are in shock.
As her 18-year-old sister revealed, their family has lost another child, who was run over by a bus in Kamatero at the age of 7.
"It's my sister. She went to the store to eat something and when she was coming back, he passed by. It wasn't 02:00 at night, it was 23:00- 00:00. My mother was here, with her. I wasn't present. My mother is in shock, she doesn’t say anything,” the 12-year-old’s sister told the Star.
“We live in Liosia, my mother didn’t live here. Her car just broke down. Here in the tents, my grandparents live and my mother had come to see her father. My sister’s name was Margarita and she went to school. I am 18 years old, I am married and have a child. My father is in prison,” her sister said, claiming that the girl did not work washing windows at traffic lights.
On the other hand, the 12-year-old's aunt reported that the 21-year-old driver had developed a high speed. "He was arguing in the car with his wife. The little girl was on the island. He went up there and took the little girl with a harrow. He himself testified to it to the police. She was coming from Athens with her mother, their car broke down, the car is broken down right here and she asked for help here from the Roma to fix it and return to her home in Ano Liosia. The mother is devastated, she doesn't even recognize her children now," he said.
