Protesters Occupy Athens Law School

A group of 150 anarchists has occupied the main School of Law building in downtown Athens demanding the release of convicted Greek leftists and the repeal of anti-terror laws.

According to Greek media, individuals stormed the building at around 8 a.m. local time, forcing students and others present to flee the premises.

Protestors are demanding the release of jailed leftist bomber Savvas Xiros along with the abolition of high-security “Type C” prisons (Type C) and Greek counter-terrorism legislation.

Similar occupations are also underway at the offices of the ruling Syriza party on the island of Crete and at the offices of left-wing Thessaloniki newspaper “Avgi.”
