Nazi party

Almost four years after the September 18, 2013, murder of rapper Pavlos Fyssas by a self-confessed member of Golden Dawn, the trial into the far-right party's alleged criminal activities resumed after the summer recess at a specially designed court in Korydallos Prison on Tuesday.

In the spring of 1945, Harald Quandt, a 23-year-old officer in the German Luftwaffe, was being held as a prisoner of war by Allied forces in the Libyan port city of Benghazi when he received a farewell letter from his mother, Magda Goebbels – the wife of Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels.

The trial of Golden Dawn, which entered its third year last month, is to be transferred soon for a third time, to a Health Ministry building, Justice Minister Stavros Kontonis said on Friday.

The trial of the neo-Nazi party's leadership, as well as dozens of supporters, began in April 2015 but has been dogged by delays and venue changes.

A 50-year-old man was identified on Friday as the person who hurled insults about the slain rapper Pavlos Fyssas during disruptions at the trial of Golden Dawn in Athens last month.

Fights broke out between Golden Dawn supporters and anarchists in the courtroom on February 14 and the 50-year-old shouted, "Where is your Pavlos now?" at the slain rapper's mother, Magda Fyssa.

In September 2016, after 82 years, a black copper cylinder “time capsule” full of disturbing Nazi artifacts was recovered. It was buried deep in concrete at the Ordensburg Krossinsee Nazi training center.

An organization calling itself the Pavlos Fyssas Brigade has claimed responsibility for last week's sledgehammer attack on the Athens headquarters of Golden Dawn and has warned of more to come.

In a statement posted Thursday on an anti-establishment website, it accused the neo-Nazi party of being part of the establishment and of collusion with big business interests.

It’s in the human nature to seek logic in everything, but when a giant group of larches bloomed in a pine forest forming a swastika sign, it’s hard to find any logical sense. Outside of the northeast German town, Zernikov, a patch of larch trees cover 4,300 sq yds of the pine forest, carefully arranged to look like a swastika sign.

A 42-year-old official of Golden Dawn appeared before an investigating magistrate in connection with the violent beating of a 24-year-old student last Friday and was given until next Wednesday to reappear and defend himself.

A 42-year-old official of Golden Dawn charged in connection with the violent beating of a 24-year-old student last Friday was to defend himself before an investigating magistrate on Monday.

Police on Saturday detained a 42-year-old official of Golden Dawn in connection with a violent attack on Friday on a 24-year-old student in the Athens neighborhood of Ambelokipi by a group of assailants believed to be linked to the neo-Nazi party.
