Jump To Comment: 1The protest at G.A.D.A. has ended with police brutality.
Students conducted protests outside the General Police Directorate of Attica (G.A.D.A.) and plan to protest outside police stations in the rest of the country. At G.A.D.A., eyewitnesses reported a substantial number of protestors.
Greek police had surrounded the G.A.D.A. building to keep out the demonstrators.
Demonstrators conducted acts of civil disobedience and the protest was generally peaceful at the outset. After a large group of protestors departed and only students remained, the police forces charged the assembly of demonstrators and sprayed chemicals into the crowd. Police arrested at least one student, who was brutally beaten and sprayed with chemicals while handcuffed. A lawyer was dispatched to assist the detainee.
Students also blocked roads on Gregoriou Lambraki St. in Korydallos and marched towards the prison. Clashes ensued and Molotov cocktails were deployed against the police.
The students plan to continue their protests throughout the week.
