One man died under suspicious circumstances when arriving on Agathonisi
This morning at first light, Aegean Boat Report was contacted by a group of people who needed assistance after having arrived on the Greek island of Agathonisi.
Several of the people who contacted us from the group, reported that they had been chased towards land by a vessel from the Greek coast guard, and said "they ran us over with their boat"
What really happened is atm not clear, did the boat hit the rocks on the way to shore, and people fell overboard, did people jumped from the boat in an desperate effort to get quickly to land, or did the Greek coast guard actually drive over them?
What we know is that a man was hit by a propeller in the lower back, resulting in a severe injury that eventually killed him, whose propeller, coast guard or refugee speedboat, we can’t say for sure, but the circumstances should be investigated by an independent party, and definitely not the coast guard.
We later learned that the man had been left behind on the shore, while the rest of the group moved away from the arriving area to higher ground. We received gruesome pictures of his injuries, with the description “he was barely breathing, but now the coast guard has taken him away”.
