I have no evidence of political interference for the blockage, if there was an EODASAM it would have been managed differently, says the president of the agency

The Commission in all its investigations found that valuable evidence was lost that could have answered the question of whether there was an illegal shipment, the Commission's chairman said.

The management of the site after the accident in Tempi was completely wrong, but that does not mean there was central planning and an order to hide evidence, the EODASAM chairman said. At the same time, he stressed that he found no evidence of political interference; no one picked up the phone to intervene, he said. He admitted that due to mismanagement, valuable data was lost, but no one found that there was central planning and order to lose data.
