"Cheques amounting to 16,202,000 francs from Al Zayat I transferred in advance to the accounts of BLUEBELL, or Ρ & Investments. The latter's owner, Mitatselis, who is no longer among the living, had authorized me to manage the accounts of the company. "

For the briberies, related to the scandal with the submarines, Zigras noted the following:

"I handed over the total amount of 2,960,000 francs to Tsochatzopoulos. I was told if possible, Melas to give me two accounts in Switzerland, in order Beltsios to transfer large amounts there. Melas and Andoniadis had helped me to set up BLUEBELL ".

Akis Tsochatzopoulos attacks his former friends

Former Defence Minister Akis Tsochatzopoulos attacked the investigator and his former associates in an interview for TV channel ALPHA. His wife Vicki Stamati made a statement for the same channel from Korydallos prison, and called Zigras a common slanderer. The former minister, apparently exhausted in appearance, said that the investigator has threatened Vicki Stamati to confiscate the house in Areopagitou and called this "unacceptable" behavior. "

About his friends from PASOK, he said "they have teamed up with New Democracy to turn the attention of the investigation only towards him and to prevent the criminal investigation of other ministers in the Ministry of Defence .."

Finally, Tsochatzopoulos appealed for his wife Vicki Stamati and his daughter Areti to be released from prison.
