Fingerprint

A 26-year-old man whose fingerprint was allegedly found inside a plastic garbage bag retrieved from an apartment in Athens' Ambelokipi district where an explosive device accidentally detonated in October, is one of the chief suspects in a 2020 attack on the former rector of the Athens University of Economics and Business (AUEB).

Police have made another arrest in relation to last month's explosion in the central Athens neighborhood of Ambelokipi in which a suspected bombmaker was killed.

Initial reports say the arrested individual is a 26-year-old man, whose fingerprint was found on the same bag as that of Nikos Romanos, who was remanded in custody in relation to the incident on Friday.

A fatal explosion in an Athens apartment last month has reignited attention on Nikos Romanos, a once-convicted anarchist, leading to new charges of terrorism and weapons possession. The case has unearthed startling connections, underscoring a complex web of past crimes, disputed evidence, and potential ties to long-dormant urban guerrilla groups.

An attempted break-in occurred at the residence of an American diplomat in Filothei on Sunday afternoon, according to state broadcaster ERT.

Unidentified individuals climbed onto the first-floor balcony and entered the interior of the two-story maisonette through the bathroom window, according to the report.

The Hellenic Police (ELAS) is casting doubt on the reported break-in at the election director's office of the Interior Ministry at noon on April 26, concluding that it was most likely staged given that no incriminating fingerprints or DNA were found at the scene of the supposed crime.

Despite the increased cost, exemptions will remain for 14-year-olds and individuals over 70 years old, who will continue to receive their ID cards free of charge.

A trial of 49 individuals arrested on Saturday afternoon following reports of vandalism at the Aristotle University in the northern port city of Thessaloniki was postponed until March 29 on Monday, due to lack of witnesses.
