Dimoglidou: Officers reacted with professionalism

However, the police did not shot against him and managed to stop him with the use of physical violence, as needed as possible, as he said.

“Indeed, the two arrests were one of the precautionary checks carried out by police officers of the blackmailers daily, not only on the weekend days. Daily in health shops, whether there are complaints and criminal personalities, or where police officers have information that people who have been involved in the past can move in the past. “

“In any case, the police reacted with professionalism,” Ms. Dimoglidou added, to underline:

“I think if others were in their place, they might have fatally hurt this man. There, police attempted to escalate the violence, as planned, in the Police Regulation and in their self -defense and self -protection. They escaped violence and when they saw that they could not disarm this man and was now dangerous to their lives, they managed to shoot a stop. Without being fatally hurt. After all, we are talking about a person in a crisis, he was not hearing any police order. “
