Here's the latest from ERT Greece:
The police manhunt in the wider area of Mylopotamos, Crete, is continuing under nasty weather conditions. No findings have been unveiled and no arrests have been made so far. In the meantime, authorities are probing the bank accounts of people living in the village of Zoniana and the mountainous areas of Mylopotamos believed to have been involved in illegal activities. Although the results the police operation has yielded have yet to come out, flash information speaks of really impressive ones.
In the meantime, Efstathios Lazaridis, the special guard who was seriously injured during a police raid in the area, is still in critical condition after undergoing a new surgery. Calling his condition stable but critical, doctors cannot yet be positive on the outcome.
A young man, wanted by the police for being involved in an ambush during which three special guards were injured, one of which seriously, turned himself in to the Heraklion police. On 2 November, the man had managed to escape a road-block set up by the police. He was also accompanied by his cousin, whom the police arrested on charges of drug trafficking. Meanwhile, more police are expected in Milopotamos to help in locating organized crime rings in the area. The police believe they are very close in discovering the culprits, as the only thing they want is inconvertible evidence that will prove their guilt.
At the same time, Prosecutors are re-examining old cases related to drug and weapons trafficking in the last 12 years, with focus on one case as per which hashish saplings were discovered in the Rethymno University compound.
