Anti-authoritarians clash with Golden Dawn supporters and riot police

Anti-authoritarians clashed with Golden Dawn supporters and riot police in Ambelokipoi district in Athens on Monday morning.

According to media reports, the anti-authoritarians attacked a group of GD supporters on their way to attend the Golden Dawn trial where major witnesses are expected to testify about the murder of left-rapper Pavlos Fyssas.

The attackers are members of a group occupying the old building complex called “Prosfygika” where Greek refugees were leaving after the expulsion from Asia Minor in 1922.

Riot police that rushed to the area became also target of the anti-authoritarians who were throwing stones and several other “items” from the roofs of the building complex.

Several parked cars have been damaged.

Police fired sound flares, detained two people.

State broadcaster ERT TV reports that one policeman was injured.

The clashes that started short after 8 am are reportedly continuing.

  1. I watched the video’s on the other news sites .. the anti-authoritarians have no weapons .. they throw rocks & bricks .. the police have guns .. are they aware of this ?
    If the police decided to go in & get them .. it would be catastrophic.

      Not only guns, if protesters wear helmets and hockey-protection the systems “justice” counts it also as “weapons”, not to forget the “hoodie-law” Papandreou “forgot” to withdraw, which could bring you up to ten years more prison-time just for the case you decide not to be filmed by X.A.-security-battalion-scum and/or their bedfellows of the police.
      This is also very leftist for Syriza to not clean the police of them
