Greek police arrest fugitive deputy leader of neo-Nazi group #GoldenDawn – #LockHimUp

Christos Pappas has been on the run since he was sentenced to more than 13 years in jail in October 2020. Police in Greece have arrested the fugitive deputy leader of neo-Nazi group Golden Dawn who had been on the run since he was sentenced to more than 13 years in jail in October. Christos Pappas had evaded justice since a landmark trial handed down sentences to more than 50 Golden Dawn defendants on charges including running a criminal organisation, murder and assault and illegal weapons possession. Pappas, 60, was sentenced to 13 years in prison, but went missing a day later. He defied a court order to turn himself in, and speculation grew that he had fled the country. He was arrested on Thursday by anti-terrorist police at a home in the central Athens district of Zografou. A 51-year-old Ukrainian woman who was sheltering him was also arrested and will be charged with aiding and abetting a criminal, according to the Proto Thema newspaper.
