Police are entering a new era of keeping order in the much maligned area of ​​Exarchia in downtown Athens.

Within two and a half hours the operation of Greek police (ELAS) forces was completed in Koukaki, in the buildings on Matrouzou and Panetolou Streets that had been recaptured by squatters.

An inquiry by internal police investigation mechanisms, in addition to the referral of the case to the National Ombudsman, was ordered on Monday into the videos, photos and complaints regarding police behaviour made in relation to the violent incidents in Exarchia on Friday, December 6.
