The resignations of the police general inspector of southern Greece, lieutenant general Ioannis Dikopoulos and the general police chief of Sterea Hellas major general Apostolos Kaskanis were accepted by public order ministry secretary general Athanasios Andreoulakis. The two high ranking police officers resigned for "personal reasons."

The counter-terrorist squad of Greek police (ELAS) is taking over all cases linking Golden Dawn with criminal activities, after a decision by the chief of police.

Public order minister Nikos Dendias has requested the inclusion of all criminal incidents involving Golden Dawn under the anti-terrorist law, trough a letter to Supreme Court (Areios Pagos) prosecutor Efterpi Koutzamani.
