Amaliada: Mourtzoukous’ revelation about Panagiotakis – “Just before we lost him, I wanted him to sleep with me”

New evidence in the case of the dead infants in Amaliada has been brought to light by Angeliki Nikolouli and the show “Light in the Tunnel”. The same Irini Mourtzoukou – in her intervention in the TV show – made a revelation about Panagiotakis.

Irini Mourtzoukou revealed that in the last three days before the child’s death, she had asked to sleep with him. “He usually slept with Popi, but in those days I wanted him to sleep with me. To be next to me. I’ve sent you the video of the crib to watch. Poppy and I were separated, but we were good to each other,” Irini Mourtzoukou said. Indeed, she noted that she intended to rest Poppy, with whom, however, according to witnesses and statements, their relationship was in the red because of the presence of the third person who had come between them.

Without intending to, Irene added another revealing clue to the case to be investigated. It is a documentary video as she sent it to the show in late summer that has now taken on new weighty significance. It records herself singing meaningful lyrics about her troubled relationship with her mother, Panagiotis, dancing behind her in the crib. All this takes place a day or two before the child loses his life.

“Maybe I’m saying God knew something about taking the little children”

Irini Mourtzoukou, in the meeting with Angeliki Nikolouli, had described her relations with Popi’s family, the difficulties that arose, and the role of a third person who, she claimed, upset the balance and led to Panagiotakis not yet being at peace.

“We were all in Athens. We had spent Christmas there. I wish, as things are coming out now, that we hadn’t gone to Amaliada,” Irini Mourtzoukou told Angeliki Nikolouli.

Asked by the journalist what would have happened if the third person had not appeared in their lives and they had not gone to Amaliada, Irini replied, “Nothing would have happened, everything would have been fine. I wish they hadn’t even come to the family. We would have had a different balance and Panagiotis would still be quiet. Maybe this wouldn’t have even happened,” he stressed.

Her reference to God’s will for the children’s deaths was also sensational: “For all these little children I have thought about why they left. Maybe I’m saying God knew something to take them. Something He wanted to get away, something to catch up. God always gives signs. I don’t know. I don’t know how much is going through my mind. Maybe where they are is better”

The person who was targeted by Irene Mourtzoukou spoke to Tunnel. She categorically denied the accusations made against her, describing Irini’s statements as the result of jealousy over her relationship with Poppy. She claimed that Irini tried from the first moment to target her, even in front of the authorities, and added that what she heard about “God who better take the children” shocked her.

The… other face of Irini Mourtzoukou

Irini Mourtzoukou’s best man, the godmother of her second child, speaking to Light at the Tunnel, expressed her desire for vindication. In the voicemails Irini sent her after what she said on the show about the night of the death at the Children’s Hospital, she was trying to show her conversion and sensitivity. “If I wasn’t clean, I wouldn’t be going anywhere, I would be hiding everywhere. I was the only one from the first moment I said I would run it and I would look into everything to the end. I’m still running and I never hid,” he told her.

Her irritation when referring to the clothes her second child was wearing at the time of her second child’s death is evident. She explains that she was “mad” that day that she threw them at the godmother, and didn’t know how to react, adding that she kept wondering “why” it all happened. The godmother expresses her distrust of Irene, noting that she didn’t see her crying while the child was lost, and in the audio, she sounds emotionally… charged.

“I held the little child in my arms, I loved him, I played with him, he gave me strength. I want his little soul to be vindicated,” she says, hoping the truth will come out. The woman says she is ready to testify to what she saw and experienced, offering her full cooperation to the authorities. “I have confidence in the authorities and I hope they get to the bottom of it and what happened,” she says.

For her part, Irini remains locked in a perpetual “why” that plagues her, trying to understand the events and find the explanations she seeks. The pressure to uncover the truth about the deaths of the 5 infants in Amalia and Patra is suffocating as the progress of the investigation is delayed and Irini Mourtzoukou’s role in this thriller remains unclear.

Homicide investigation into little Panagiotis in the final stage

As far as the death of little Panagiotis is concerned, the investigation by experienced Homicide officers is nearing its final stage. They have already formed a picture of what happened that morning of August 5 at his home in Amaliada.

They are waiting for the laboratory results of the histopathologists to call Irene to testify and send the case file to the prosecutor’s office of Ilia, which is the ordering authority of the preliminary investigation. There the judicial officer will decide whether to prosecute and against whom.

The homicide squad continues the investigation, putting the testimonies as well as the statements of the protagonists “entangled” in contradictions under the microscope.
