“IT IS FORBIDDEN FOR BOTH THE RICH AND THE POOR TO SLEEP UNDER BRIDGES, BEG AND STEAL BREAD”
Anatole France
In July 2019, at Leroy Merlin(Leroy Merlin is a French-headquartered home improvement and gardening retailer serving several countries in Europe,) in Piraeus, an attempt to remove low-priced products by comrades Christoforos Kortesis, and Thymios A. takes place. This is the reason for the targeting of trade unionist-comrade Giannis A. by the security company OVIT employed by Leroy. Giannis A. does not resign as indicated by the management. After being held hostage for 3 hours the two comrades leave the “small room” of the store with the help of four more comrades. The next afternoon, the cops kidnap Christoforos K., take him to the GADA ( headquarters police in Athens) and charge him, as the prosecutor Angeloudi upgrades this to felony.
