On 14 May, unknown arsonists targeted the car of a television crime reporter. The vehicle was parked outside her home in the northern suburb of Papagou in Athens and was blown up with a makeshift explosive device. Police believe this was a message sent by supporters of Dimitris Koufodinas demanding a seventh furlough for the jailed hitman of the now defunct group November 17, who is on hunger strike. On 21 May the group Incendiary Anti-police Reporters claimed responsibility. [size=no report]
