The martyrdom of an abused little girl 

Dear reader,

This is our weekly round-up from Greece. 

The 12-year-old girl who had been repeatedly raped and forced into prostitution was now attacked by a knifed hooded man in her aunt's house where she lives. The Citizen Protection Minister disputed that the attacks took place. This is the fourth attack in a few days.

The government attempted to pass a bill, adding a last-minute clause allowing independent authorities members to be persecuted should they breach classified information. It was reported as targeting Hellenic Authority for Communication Security and Privacy members who were influential in revealing information concerning the wiretapping scandal.

Finally, several gunshots were fired in Athens in the last few days. Greece has one of the highest per capita police officers, yet they send them to arrest… dancers.   

The 12-year-old who was raped and forced into prostitution was now attacked and injured in her home.

We have repeatedly analyzed this case in our newsletter. It indicates how the Greek state (does not) protect abused children and appears to show a mafia ring in operation, possibly including high-ranking officials. 

The 12-year-old girl who had been repeatedly raped and pimped by a 53-year-old man was injured in a knife attack (Abre numa nova janela) in the home where she lives with her aunt and a younger brother, her lawyer revealed on Monday.

It is reported (Abre numa nova janela) that In a different statement, the mother of the 12-year-old victim pointed out that the aim of these threatening actions –four, recently– is to intimidate the girl so she would not give more evidence to authorities.
