The trial over the devastating Tempi train disaster continued in Larissa under heavy security. Lawyer and former parliament speaker Zoe Konstantopoulou told the court that key figure Panos Routsi had been hospitalized after violence was allegedly inflicted upon him. The courtroom at the “Gaiopolis” venue opened at 8:00 a.m. with strict entry protocols: separate access points for lawyers, defendants, and victims’ families, and only accredited journalists were allowed inside. Cameras and all forms of recording were banned. The case, one of Greece’s most emotionally charged legal proceedings in years, continues to grip the nation.
