When Tunnel’s reporter, who was investigating death conditions of Vassilis Meleniklis, arrived at the front door of his friends’ yard in the village of Alistrati Serres, the radio was palyibg the song of Akis Panos: “My life a treat to Death …”

It was like the lyrics were marking two more deaths that would follow.

The two brothers, Vasili’s “friends”, buried him in the back of their yard in April 2018 and lived for two months with his corpse literally under their feet!

It was shocking that one of them complained to the camera that he gave the money he had taken from Vasilis on the same day to a Greek dealer of the area who,who, after the  publicity of the disappearance gave up shelling drugs and someone else was running the business.

These complaints were brought to the attention of the Authorities, but no trader was arrested in the area and the shadow of white death was constantly spreading …

A few months later one of the brothers was found dead in an abandoned warehouse in the same area. Beside him, he was in a poor state  the other one, who then managed to escape the danger thanks to the doctors of the Drama hospital. But recently he did not have the same luck …

On the afternoon of Sunday, February 24, he was also found dead with drug paraphernalia next to him.

The technical advisor to the family of Vassilis Meleniklis, who had been buried in the courtyard of the two brothers’ house, stressed that if they had been alerted to an ambulance, the young man would have been saved.

Coroner Socrates Tantris, who was found in  Tunnel’s studio, said:

“Silence in these cases means death. The forensic investigation comes either to confirm or to deny the facts. The results of the toxicology tests despite the advanced rotting of the body have revealed the fatal complications. The death of the young occurred in a period after the use of substances, meaning that he lived for some hours. We were lucky as we found the syringe that had been used in his hand. The results of the content analysis that are still awaited will give us a fuller picture of the conditions of death, “he said.
