A DRACONIAN new Greek law has been branded a chilling attempt to gag non-government aid workers and volunteers from speaking out about the neglect and abuse of refugees languishing in squalid camps.

The gagging order requires any government employee witnessing abuse to report it to a senior member of staff but no-one else. The law applies even after people have stopped working in a refugee camp.
