LATEST NEWS: Unprecedented detention sentence, year and a half for three Serbs on Zakynthos
Detention for the other four suspects should be determined during the day
The investigating judge has determined a detention of 18 months for three Serbs suspected of participating in the murder of US citizen, Bakari Henderson, on the Greek island Zakynthos. It is expected that the same measure will be made for the remaining four.
It is uncertain when the trial itself will begin because it is necessary to collect evidence and to carry out a detailed investigation. New videos appear almost daily which show precisely what was going on. Video from the bar and the one of what happened on the street, dramatic moments of pushing, and then kicking the American have gone around the world, they are on YouTube.
There is almost no TV station that hasn't published it. According to the reporter of "To proto thema", everything was done in one second. After that, 22 years old, who was lying on the pavement, couldn't be helped anymore. The ambulance that arrived in six minutes couldn't save him.
The official report is that he died due to multiple hits he received in the head and the face, which prompted bleeding in the brain. The video shows around dozen young men who attacked him.
What is a direct cause, a broken bottle, a wrong drink, a selfie with a girl, are of little importance, commented Greek media reminding that cheap alcohol in the summer resorts are increasing cause of incidents and potential danger for new tragic events.
In any case, Serbian citizens are waiting for many months of detention until the investigation is completed and all the relevant evidence have been gathered. Then the indictments and only then, the scheduling of the trial.
