racist hate attack against Roma people community of Xanthi

May 10, 2013

According to reports of journalists in Xanthi and the state TV station ET3, residents of the city have invited a group of neonazis to attack the community of Roma people. The excuse was more or less the same like other regions of the country. The residents talk about a number of small-robberies in their area which is increased lately. The residents together with the nazis set the half of the Roma people tents on fire. The local police didn’t show up during the pogrom incident.

Both workers were beaten with a knife or other sharp object, one on the back and the other on the leg, and transferred to the health center (small hospital) of Varda. The foreman was arrested by the police: here.
