The private family-owned hotel and tourism company bluegr Hotels & Resorts, founded by Gina Mamidakis, has no corporate or business relationship or any association with the gas company Jetoil, an announcement read on Monday.

The announcement came after the cofounder and owner of gas company Jetoil, Kyriakos Mamidakis, 84, was found dead in his home in the northern Athenian suburb of Dionysos on Sunday. The Greek media refer to a possible suicide.
