Golden Dawn ballots destroyed with antiseptic by unknown perpetrators

22 May, 2019

Unknown perpetrators have destroyed the whole load of municipality elections ballots of the far-right party Golden Dawn in the suburb of Kallithea, south Athens.

The perpetrators used antiseptic Bedatine that soaked into the 92,000 ballot papers thus destroying them completely.

According to local media, the incident took place short before 10 o’ clock on Friday night, before the shift change of security personnel at the municipality building where the ballots were stored. The perpetrators warned the guard to ‘stay out of the case’ saying that they would hurt him. They headed directly to the load of Golden Dawn and poured a liquid on it.

They had disappeared through the streets of Kallithea before police teams arrived at the building.
Kallitheoneline writes that it is worth noting that the perpetrators knew exactly where the Golden Dawn ballots were kept.
The ballots had arrived at the Municipality building just a few hours before the attack, early Friday afternoon.
The participation of the far-right party in the municipality elections in Kallithea on May 26 is unclear as the deadline expired on Saturday noon. It will be up to the Interior Ministry to decide.
