Roughly Over 1,124 people have already been arrested for debts totalling 1.5 billion Euros, as well as unpaid taxes from January-September 2012 to the Greek State, according to Public Order Minister Nikos Dendias. The Greek police, which is now responsible for financial and electronic crime, especially if it has the features of organised crime, has also handled another 202 cases of debtors who apparently settled their debts to the State that amounted to more than 60 million Euros. Replying to a deputy's question in parliament recently Dendias also stated that the department of tax supervision has also been incorporated in the police. The inspecting body is responsible for tax or customs duties evasion, concealment or distortion of taxable material or data, and the non-issuing of receipts for services, sales and distribution of products.
