The case of the 32-year-old Syrian in Aigaleo
It should be noted that in recent days, the actions of a 32-year-old Syrian in Aigaleo had shocked the public, as he attacked three women, including minors. The man who spread terror on the streets of Aigaleo had previously been involved with the justice system, yet was walking free. Reports indicate that he had been detained at least 20 times in the past. The charges included attempted murder, and as revealed, he is also accused of arson. However, this person continued to walk freely on the streets of Athens. The incident with the attacks on the three women became the reason his activities were finally stopped, fortunately avoiding the worst as there were no victims from his attacks.
