I received the following note from a friend in Athens, who I saw last month:
Anyway, the situation in Greece is characterized by an exacerbation of
police violence against demonstrators and left citizens. Ten days ago
Dimosthenis Papadatos, the young man with the beard who attained all
our meetings at the Institute and was also present at the dinner in
our house, was caught by anti-terror policemen covering their faces in
hoods when returning home, carried to the central police departments,
beaten, stripped bare naked, slagged, and after four hours set free,
with the excuse that it was a "mistake" and they (the anti-terror
police) "confused him with someone else". See also the international
petition against police violence in Greece.

I hope you will consider signing this.
in solidarity,
