Confessional letter after explosive explosion in Athens – Diepresse.com

After a bomb attack on the offices of the Greek railway company Hellenic Train in the center of Athens, an organization called « Revolutionary self -defense of the classes » took responsibility for this. A letter of confession was published on a Greek autonomous website on Sunday. As the Greek broadcaster Ertnews reported, the anti -terrorist unit of the Greek police has taken over the investigation.

The bomb had exploded on Friday evening in front of the railway building’s building. Nobody was injured because the police evacuated all people after an anonymous call. However, the facade of the building was significantly damaged.

Criticism of Hellenic Train after train accident with 57 deaths

There is continuing criticism at the Hellenic Train railway company and the conservative government. A good two years ago, 57 people died in a serious train accident in Central Greece. At that time, an intercity train collided head-on with a freight train. The examinations of the accident are still ongoing.

Numerous members of the victims and political parties accuse the railway company and the conservative government of neglecting the railway system. This was also criticized by the underground organization in her letter of confession.

Autonomous always at work

The underground organization « Revolutionary Self -Defense of the Classes » took responsibility for a bomb attack on the offices of the Greek Ministry of Labor in February 2024. Even then, only damage to property occurred.

Autonomous and left -handed underground organizations have repeatedly committed similar attacks in the past decades. The groups see themselves as a kind of city guerrilla. Their declared goal is to overthrow the state and practice revenge for social injustice in the country. (APA/dpa)
