The Pakistani leader of a gang, whose knife-wielding members broke into an apartment in Kaminia last Saturday and slaughtered a 29-year-old man and brutally beat two other of their compatriots was arrested by Greek Police.

The ring leader, who is in charge of a group involved in trafficking, cigarette smuggling, and illegal drug trafficking in the squares of the centre of Athens, was arrested late on Thursday night, in Didymoteicho, northern Greece.
