THE Greek Supreme Court is considering whether to reverse its decision to release leading neonazi Golden Dawn member George Patelis earlier this week, after mass protests.
Mr Patelis, who was sentenced to 10 years in prison for the 2013 murder of rapper Pavlos Fyssas, saw his controversial request for release accepted on Monday.
His legal team argued that he should be freed, citing his child’s health condition. Mr Patelis has served just two-and-a-half years behind bars.
