A total of 68 persons, including leader Nikolaos Michaloliakos, have been charged for alleged crimes of murder, criminal organization and other crimes committed in the ex-party. The trial against Nazism in Nuremberg, one of the largest since it began, is now over. The Court of Appeal of Athens on Wednesday sentenced the head of Golden Dawn, presided over by Michaloliakos, to be guilty of leading a criminal organization.

In Greece and in the anti-fascist movement, the sentence has a turning point: His colleagues and militants committed the crimes under the direction and protection of the leadership of Aurora Urrekara. Michaloliakos and six other leaders of the Golden Dawn criminal organization have been found guilty of leading the criminal group, while 18 others have been convicted by criminal association.

Golden Dawn became Greece’s third parliamentary force, with 18 of its 300 seats in the Greek Parliament. However, in the last Greek elections, the party did not obtain more than 3% of the votes it needed for representation.

'Killah P'.

In the trial he was sentenced to a well-known case in Greece, which caused a great deal of noise: The murder of the 34-year-old anti-fascist rapper Pavlos Fyssas "Killah P" occurred in September 2013. Golden Dawn colleague Giorgos Roupakias confessed that he had killed him with a knife. Roupakias is found guilty and faces a life sentence.

Dozens of police have gathered in the vicinity of the Court of Appeal in Athens to protest against the thousands of demonstrators who preceded them. The anti-fascists gathered in the place have called for long prison sentences with banners in which you could read "fear won't win" and "the Nazis in jail." After hearing the rulings of the National Hearing, the demonstrators welcomed the mobilisation. Then the police have released tear gas that has spread to the crowd to disperse them.
