Convicted leader of 17N Alexandros Giotopoulos hospitalized

Alexandros Giotopoulos, the convicted leader of the terrorist organization 17 November, has been hospitalized after suffering a pulmonary embolism

Newsroom September 25 06:23

According to reports, the 80-year-old Giotopoulos has been under guard for the past ten days in the pulmonary clinic of “Sotiria” Hospital, where he was admitted due to a severe respiratory infection.

Giotopoulos, identified as a founding member and leader of 17 November under the alias “Lambros,” is receiving treatment and showing signs of improvement. However, his health remains fragile due to his age and other underlying conditions.

If his condition continues to improve, he is expected to be discharged from the hospital next week.
