Greek police carried out an operation this weekend, following investigations into the actions of gangs in Piraeus, Athens, which had an armed clash outside a nightclub in April 2024. Among the 12 arrested were Albanian citizens.

What had happened?

In the early hours of April 29, 2024, outside a nightclub in the Piraeus area, two criminal groups, consisting of at least 6 people each, initially clashed with each other with punches and kicks. They then pulled out guns and the gang members exchanged gunfire.

According to police officers from the Crimes Against Life Prosecution Department of the Crimes Against Life Sub-Directorate, the 12 arrested are accused of forming a criminal organization, attempted murder with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, breach of duty and violation of drug and weapons laws. A criminal case has already been opened. The 12 members of the two gangs were referred to the competent criminal prosecution authority.
