Complaints about violent adductions by the KNE
For its part, the KNE “denounces the unprecedented invasion of the MAT and the violent bringing of dozens of students to the Law School of the Democritus University of Thrace, in Komotini, including several members of the KNE, today, Monday, February 5”.
As she states in her announcement “the “crime” of the students was that they implemented the collective decision of their Student Union to participate in the student mobilizations, with the school closed, against the extreme bill for private universities, which makes injustice a law and dissolves degrees and their future.

The government has huge responsibilities for this unacceptable action. The threats, the authoritarianism, the repression of the government, aimed at intimidating and terrorizing the new generation, will fall on deaf ears! Instead of implementing the fair demands of the students and withdrawing the unacceptable multi-legislation, he responds with MAT, repression and violence”.
“They are deeply laughed at if they think that with the intensity of repression and authoritarianism they can frighten students, prevent them from collective assertion and action.
The mass participation of thousands of students in the great pan-Hellenic student rally on Thursday, February 8 at 12:00 in Propylaia will be the best answer! The majority does not shut up! Right will win! Let all the students be released here and now without any charges being brought against them!” emphasizes, concluding its announcement, KNE.
