Newsroom February 20 06:32

A 44-year-old patient of the Tower had been killed by a 47-year-old inmate at the Psychiatric Hospital in Athens, Greece, who was killed by a 47-year-old inmate with a piece of broken mirror.

The woman had been admitted to Dafni a day before she met a tragic death, and according to a relative who spoke to patrisnews.com, she would have remained for a short period as she was addicted to drugs, and her admissions were done so that she could take her medication.

According to the relative, the 44-year-old’s family learned of her death from a TV show that contacted them, claiming they had not been called by the Psychiatric Hospital. According to him, the hospital did not know the 44-year-old’s details.

After the completion of the necropsy – autopsy, the woman’s body will be transferred to Pyrgos to be buried at the first cemetery in the area.

Despite his condition, he left the ward where he was being treated in Dafni early Monday morning and went to the ward of the unfortunate 44-year-old woman, where he slashed her with the broken mirror and injured himself by the glass. He then went out into the corridor where he informed the nurses of his heinous act and disappeared before the police arrived.

The 47-year-old was arrested in the area of Skaramanga on Wednesday after a call from a driver who saw him walking on the Athens-Corinthos highway, often in the middle of the road where he was in danger of being run over by cars.

Finally, the Athens Prosecutor’s Office of First Instance has launched a prosecutorial investigation to investigate any criminal liability of the managers of the Athens “Dafni” psychiatric hospital regarding the 47-year-old’s hospitalization regime.
