Prosecution investigation for the power outages in Athens

The reason for the prosecutor's intervention was not only what is published in the media but also complaints that -according to information- the Prosecutor's Office received with dozens of phone calls from citizens stating that they are two or even three 24 hours without electricity and heating and can not cover basic their needs

The investigation was undertaken by the Prosecutor of the Court of First Instance, Apostolos Andreou.
