A home-made bomb exploded at the entrance of a home in the Psychico suburb of Athens belonging to a woman whose name has been implicated in the money laundering case against former PASOK minister Akis Tsohatzopoulos case by a witness. According to reports, Tsohatzopoulos' daughter Areti had set up a company with the woman, a former town planning secretary general of the Environment Ministry. The explosion and ensuing fire caused minor material damage. Attica Security Police are investigating the incident.
Following the explostion, the organisation calling itself "Fighting Minority" (Machomeni Meiopsifia) assumed responsibility for placing the incendiary bomb at the house of former Environment secretary general Maria Kaltsa in the northern Athens suburb of Psychiko.
Through a proclamation uploaded on the "Indymedia" site, the group also claimed responsibility for the firebombing of a car in the Athens district of Kypseli on November 25 which they claimed belonged to a man who attacked immigrants as reprisal for the death of a Greek man, Manolis Kantaris, 44, killed in May 2011 during a holdup as he was preparing to take his wife to the hospital to give birth.
Kaltsa was a target because as PASOK official and as architect she was "allocating projects to herself" and specifically to a company "she belonged to that had assumed construction of the concentration camps for immigrants," it said. (Combined reports AMNA)
