Greek mafia member 44-year-old Vangelis Zampounis, known by the nickname "Zambon", was executed in one of the most expensive death contracts of the night, outside a gas station in Neo Kosmos in the early hours of Sunday.
This was not the first time that an assassination attempt was organized against him, but the perpetrators managed to eliminate it. It should be noted that only outside the car 97 cartridges were found, inside there are others that will be counted in the forensic laboratories.
As it turned out, the victim's car had weak armor materials. However, a military Kalashnikov was also found in the trunk of the victim's car.
He was attacked five years ago. Monday, October 29, 2018, a white van approaches the car of Vangelis Zampounis which is parked outside an oil company office on the Kondili coast in Piraeus. The executioners will shoot, but the Kalashnikov will jam, bringing 3-4 bullets and wounding the 38-year-old in the leg and arm. The potential victim had a relationship with "Bella Mafia" who was killed a month ago.
At that time, the name of 40-year-old Vangelis Zampounis was also heard in the testimony of "Litsa", a relative of a Greek mafia leader, who revealed a large part of his criminal activity. According to her testimony, her relative had asked to photograph the President of Appeal Paraskevi Kalaitzi, who tried the Panagopoulos abduction case, and to show her the then 40-year-old photos with the intention of killing her.
The death contract was not executed, as in November 2012, the 40-year-old was arrested for weapons possession. On November 22, 2012, a powerful bomb exploded in the house of the judicial official in Holargos. In the information bulletins of Greek police officials, there was evidence that the victim participated in or consented to the murder of Vassilis Stefanakos and that of Manolis Karagiannis.
Five years later, the second attempt against the 44-year-old was successful. He was "ambushed" as soon as he got out of the gas station and got into the car with a Kalashnikov, while the authorities found 97 cartridges just outside the vehicle. The 44-year-old's car was armored, the scene was cordoned off and homicide officers began looking for evidence.
The execution was professional, lasted a few seconds and immediately the perpetrators disappeared from an area theoretically very well guarded with frequent patrols. The gas station is located at the intersection of Ilia Iliou and Frantzi streets. The authorities, who have launched a hunt to determine the perpetrators' escape route, found the perpetrators' vehicle burned in Dafni.
The police are collecting material from the security cameras that recorded the moment of the execution, as well as the movements of the perpetrators before and after the murder, while they interrogated a taxi driver, who was at the gas station at that moment, as a witness.
