“Any such report will now be given to the competent Public Prosecutors,” says the ELAS announcement – the photos referred to as examples
“Only as non -existent, slanderous and possibly criminal hell can statements and posts circulating online and mainly on social media, can be characterized by supposedly” evidence “, which attempts to identify police officers with people who are caused by police.” ELAS said in a statement.
The statement states that “such positions distort reality and create unjustified stereotypes and prejudices while shaking the confidence of the citizens and undermine the work of the Greek Police. Greek police officers operate exclusively under the law, with the main concern of protecting citizens who are in peace. For the same purpose, police officers with self -denial place their physical integrity at risk, as evidenced by the injuries they suffered in yesterday’s demonstrations by attacks of violent criminal elements, “and stresses that::
“The same police officers, before the demonstrations, identified and arrested people with dangerous objects, such as Molotov cocktails and explosive – incendiary mechanisms, that could even remove human lives. Businesses continued throughout the demonstration, with the priority of ensuring the physical integrity of the peaceful protesters. As a result, the police have so far made -237 – of which -77 – arrests. Many of these people have been found to belong to the antisocial area or have previously been involved in fan episodes. It goes without saying that investigations are continuing by the competent services of the Hellenic Police to identify all those involved in the incidents, from open and same sources.
Consequently, any identification with these individuals is at least humiliated against Greek police officers, especially when it is attempted even by persons who have public discourse and in a way that is spreading false information and news. Any such report will now be taken into account by the competent prosecutors for criminal evaluation and investigation.
Characteristically and to restore reality, it is sufficient to say that posts identified by Greek police officers with turmoil are constructed as they even use images that have been circulating online for several years and in some cases do not even concern our country.
Truth easily comes with a simple internet search. However, this material is already subject to a separate research, with evidence from technical elements and the perpetrators will face the consequences of their actions.
Indicatively, the photo below that is being transmitted as a recent and supposedly shows Greek police officers and hoodlum arrested wearing similar clothes, is a 2007 photo taken in Quebec, Canada.
Similarly, the photo below has been posted online since 2009, but in addition to being carried out at regular intervals at demonstrations as recent, the people depicted in it have nothing to do with police officers, but were members of the party at that time.
Greek police officers will continue to perform their duty with professionalism and dedication, in order to protect all citizens. “
