Τestimony of the taxi driver, who transported the gunman

The 31-year old Albanian Arber Baku, who at dawn Saturday (11/22/2014), with a Kalashnikov, opened fire at nightclub in Mikrolimano, injuring at least 15 people, insists on his original apology.

The 31-year old gunslinger, who was sent to prison after the unanimous decision of prosecutor and investigator, argued once again that during the bloody attack was drunk.

At the same time, the taxi driver, who transported the gunman shortly after the attack, gave a shocking testimony to the Police. According to the defense counsel, Takis Dorovitsitos, the 50-year old professional driver is the father of two children and has nothing to do with the case.

Concerning the testimony of the taxi driver, his counsel argued that the 50-year old driver, that night, was trembling from fear and could not think of anything. The fear, repeated, made him not to go earlier in the Police Station, since the Albanian gunslinger had his mobile number and was afraid that he would harm him and especially harm his children. According to information, the taxi which is visible in the video, parked outside the store, is not the taxi that transported the 31-Year old Albanian.

What says the taxi driver in his testimony
The 50-year old taxi driver, in his statement to the police, reportedly claims that that night while was passing from Mikrolimano, he saw in the dark a man to lift his hand and he stopped. The Albanian sat in the co-driver seat and immediately put his Kalashnikov in the ribs of the taxi driver and said: "Go ahead, ash ... I'm a villain." The taxi driver was shocked, and some time his vehicle was crossed with two police cars, which probably went to the crime scene.
Sometime he arrived in Evelpidon street, moving to the Supreme Court, and left the offender in a square that was a taxi rank. The taximeter writes 22,50 euro and the Albanian thug gave him 30 euros. Before leaving, however, told the taxi driver to give him his mobile number and said: "You know what that means."
The 50-year old in his testimony to the police reportedly claims that he was too scared, to go to the police. On Wednesday morning, he called his lawyer and went with him in the building of the police headquarters, where he gave his testimony on the case.
