Arrest for 2011 Murder of DIAS Police Officers in Rendi

DIASGreek Police announced the arrest at dawn on Thursday of a 26-year-old fugitive in the area of Acharnes in Athens, Greece, who has been convicted in absentia for the murder of two officers in a DIAS motorcycle patrol, carried out in March 2011 in the Rendi district near Piraeus.
The suspect had been sought since March 20, 2013 when he failed to appear for the last two hearings on the case before an Athens Criminal Appeals Court, in violation of the terms of his release from custody in October 2, 2012. The court had sentenced him to twice life and 62 years in jail, finding him guilty of repeated counts of murder, attempted murder, participation in a criminal organization and violating laws on weapons.
The arrest was carried out during spot checks by Acharnes police station officers and the arrested convict led before an Athens criminal appeals court prosecutor, who ordered his immediate incarceration in a correctional facility.
