GOLDEN DAWN TRIAL

The trial of Golden Dawn lasted five-and-a-half years and that was in order to safeguard judicial procedures and the rights of the defendants.

After four long years a verdict must be rendered in the Golden Dawn trial, the verdict that is being awaited by the family of Pavlos Fyssas and by all defenceless victims of the neo-Nazis.

On 28 September, 2013, ten days after Fyssas was murdered, To Vima  had reported that Patelis was being closely scrutinised by Greek Police considerably earlier for another criminal attack in Keratsini (where Fyssas was murdered).

Obviously no one could imagine such a murderer walking the streets in Cyprus just because the 18-month limit of incarceration expired before a verdict was delivered, as occurs in Greece.
