Greek woman sues minister and officials over family's death in fire
A WOMAN whose family died in last month’s devastating wildfire in holiday resorts near Athens filed a criminal lawsuit today against seven officials, including Greece’s Interior Minister Panos Skourletis.
Mr Skourletis joins former public order minister Nikos Toskas, the local mayor and regional governor and the former heads of the fire department, police and civil protection agency as targets of the suit, which accuses them of intentional homicide and exposing the public to danger.
Barbara Voukaki lost her husband Grigori Fytros, 13-year-old daughter Evita and 11-year-old son Andreas to the flames.
