The secret operation of EL.AS in the homes of the arrested in Athens, Piraeus and Perama was crowned with success after information that had reached the Extortion Service, according to what he said the press representative of EL.AS, Constantia Dimoglidou in SKAI and in the show “Dekatianoi”.

Mrs. Dimoglidou pointed out that, among other things, a large quantity of TNT explosive material, 2 boxes, as well as instantaneous fuses were found. “We will have to get information on where the weapons and explosives could be used,” said Mrs. Dimoglidou without excluding the involvement of those arrested in recent cases, while also leaving open the possibility that they were preparing a new attack.

At the same time, he did not rule out new arrests.

Who are the 4 arrested?
