The EKAM search focused on the cell of the detained Fabio Dusco, who was previously charged with involvement in the Gorgopotamos case, the attempt by Christodoulos Xiros and “Conspiracy of Fire Nuclei” terrorist organization to help members of the terrorist organization escape in January of 2015.

Police officers found in the cell of the Albanian detainee knives and laptop connected to the internet with USB connections, but no guns, despite the relevant information they had.

Police sources, however, are investigating how a criminal such as Dusko was found in the First Wing of the Korydallos Prison, where there are no serious criminals housed.
