The court had earlier acknowledged the guilt of Giorgios Roupakias. Activism In 2002 Golden Dawn claimed to have local organisations in 32 Greek cities, but also in Cyprus. The party created the "Committee of National Memory" (Επιτροπή Εθνικής Μνήμης, Epitropí Ethnikís Mnímis), to organise demonstrations commemorating the anniversaries of certain Greek national events. Since 1996, the Committee of National Memory organized an annual march, usually on 31 January in Athens, in memory of three Greek officers who died during the Imia military crisis.
