Greece Moving Police Forces Around Country into Athens, Crime Squads
In an effort to combat perception that it’s losing control of law and order in Greece’s capital, the New Democracy government has had the Hellenic Police (ELAS) transferring officers from elsewhere in the country into Athens.
That has caused some dissension though, said Kathimerini, as those being moved from their duties are being paid an extra 4,200 euros ($4477) per month in compensation to deal with the extra costs, while teachers, doctors and others assigned to remote spots and islands get nothing to help them. More than 700 officers are being transferred into Athens to take up patrols and boost visibility as there haven’t been police on foot walking around neighborhoods to give a sense of security. https://www.thenationalherald.com/greece-moving-police-forces-around-country-into-athens-crime-squads/
