Greek anarchists claim responsibility for igniting Polish diplomatic vehicle
On Wednesday night a car belonging to Polish consul Bogna
Niezielinska-Galperyn was set on fire in Athens. The Greek anarchist
organization Black Star claimed responsibility. Two weeks ago they also
confessed to burning a car from the Italian embassy. It is not known why
the organization chose the Polish car. As reported by the police in
Athens, the incident was neither targeted at Galperyn nor the embassy.
Black Star is famous for its speciality of burning cars belonging to
diplomats. According to sources, the incident was supposed to be a protest
against the arrest of an anarchist named Seisanidis. (Rzeczpospolita, page
