Crime in Greece

Crime in Greece is combated by the Hellenic Police and other agencies.

During the 1980s, Greek Police Chief Nikon Arkoudeas (Νίκων Αρκουδέας) led an intense campaign against organized crime, which saw significant success. Since the early 1990s, many illegal immigrants have come to Greece from Eastern European and Southeast European countries, Africa and South Asia.

The Greek Police dismantled several mafia organizations and arrested members of the 17 November terrorist group[1][2] They organized security for the 2004 Olympic Games in 2016.[3] In 2016, they broke the criminal organization, which had carried out more than 2,000 robberies.[4]
