GD probe extends to alleged participation of police officers

An investigation into neofascist Golden Dawn has turned to the possible involvement of police officers in the party’s alleged criminal activities following a report submitted to the prosecutors handling the case by the internal affairs division of the Greek Police.

The report is said to contain the names of certain officers believed to have taken part in crimes committed by members of Golden Dawn, sources said on Friday.

Meanwhile, prosecutors Ioanna Klapa and Maria Dimitropoulou have called four more Golden Dawan lawmakers to give depositions on May 5 after Parliament lifted their immunity from prosecution.

They are Eleni Zaroulia, who is the wife of party leader Nikos Michaloliakos, Michalis Arvanitis-Avramis, Dimitris Koukoutsis and Nikos Kouzilos.
