Greek cops hunt for Golden Dawn member who refused to turn himself in
Golden Dawn party leader Nikos Michaloliakos waves as he leaves his residence in Athens, yesterday
GREEK authorities are searching for a leading member and former politician of the far-right Golden Dawn party after he evaded arrest.
Police were searching today for Christos Pappas, officially considered a fugitive following Thursday’s court decision ordering a total of 39 people, including 13 former Golden Dawn lawmakers, to be imprisoned after they were convicted of running the party as a criminal organisation.
All but two of the 39 were in custody by Thursday night, having turned themselves in.
