Ampelokipoi – arrest of a 31-year-old man: “I didn’t know who lived in the apartment, they were friends of my girlfriend”
A 31-year-old man was arrested by the Anti-Terrorist Police for the explosion in the apartment in Ampelokipi
Important developments were recorded earlier in the case as Anti-Terrorism officials proceeded to arrest a person.
This is a 31-year-old man, who appears to be related to the girl who took the keys to the apartment and gave them to the man who lost his life and the woman who was seriously injured.
According to information, in the next few hours it is possible that the woman who owned the keys to the apartment will come to testify.
The arrested person will be taken to the prosecutor at noon.
Estimates of the explosion
According to the estimates of Anti-Terrorist officials, a device with dynamite or gelato-dynamite exploded in the apartment. In addition to the two weapons, an old detonator, the same as the one used in the failed attack on the MAT headquarters, was found in the apartment. Voyage bags were also found in sterile bags and it is believed that this is where the bomb would have been placed, in an effort to not leave any biological material that could lead to them at some point.
At the same time, multi-stranded and single-stranded cables of various colors, electronic boards, mobile phone, metal and spiral plates possibly from a time delay mechanism, metal plates possibly from on-off switches, batteries, fabric were found.
The first estimate of the possible target of the would-be bombers is the Israeli embassy, located a short distance from the apartment. Already, information is being sought on the itineraries of the two women in the area. According to the data so far, they allegedly moved on foot and not by any means of transport.

**Interview with Police Expert on Recent Explosion in Ampelokipi**
**Interviewer**: Thank you for joining us today. We want to delve into the recent tragic explosion in Ampelokipi, where a 36-year-old man was killed. Can you provide us with some initial thoughts on the circumstances surrounding this incident?
**Guest**: Thank you for having me. The explosion in Ampelokipi raises several significant concerns. The identification of the victim, a 36-year-old from Piraeus, via fingerprints in Europol’s international database suggests that the authorities are dealing with a person who may have a complicated past, particularly with arrests related to activist actions in Germany. This opens up questions about the nature of his activities and how they could relate to the circumstances of his death.
**Interviewer**: You mentioned that the man had a background in activism. Could this incident be connected to his past, or might it be purely coincidental?
**Guest**: It’s hard to say definitively without more information, but the fact that he had prior arrests in Germany indicates he may have been involved in politically charged events or protests. This connection could potentially be relevant. Law enforcement will likely investigate whether this incident had political motivations or if it was purely an unfortunate accident tied to personal circumstances.
**Interviewer**: In relation to the arrest of the 31-year-old man who claimed he didn’t know the victim personally, what does this suggest about the investigation?
**Guest**: The statement from the 31-year-old highlights the complexity of social networks within urban environments. If he’s claiming ignorance of who lived in the apartment, it could imply that the victim had links to individuals with various motivations, possibly unaware of what might transpire within their social circles. This will likely prompt police to dig deeper into the interrelationships and background of everyone involved to establish a clearer context for the explosion.
**Interviewer**: Given the ongoing investigation, what steps do you think law enforcement will take next?
**Guest**: The Hellenic Police will probably increase their focus on forensics to understand the cause of the explosion and any potential explosives used. They will also pursue thorough interrogations with the individuals connected to the victim and the suspect. Additionally, they might collaborate with international agencies like Europol to assess any broader implications if the incident is linked to organized or activist groups.
**Interviewer**: Thank you for your insights. The situation is evolving, and we appreciate you shedding light on these significant issues.
**Guest**: Thank you for having me. It’s crucial to remain informed and vigilant as this story develops.
