According to police investigations, this 11-member gang operated between Turkey and Greece, smuggling arms and narcotics. Their lucrative operations allowed them to invest heavily in high-end accommodations and designer accessories.

The gang rented two properties under one member’s name: one in Dafni and another in Porto Rafti, which were used to house gang members. They also rented a second property in Porto Rafti. Recently, one gang member, internationally wanted for drug-related crimes, was hiding in a luxury hotel in Anavyssos.

Following a police operation, all 11 members were arrested. The search yielded five Rolex watches, a Patek Philippe watch, and over €80,000. Among the detainees was a 25-year-old fugitive facing international drug trafficking charges.
