Giotopoulos, a 58-year-old economist who has been charged with almost 1,000 offences, is maintaining that he is innocent and that his November 17 role was "invented by the Anglo-American secret services".However, fingerprints on arms seized by police during last year's raids were found to match those of Giotopoulos.
Giotopulos, economist in varsta de 58 de ani suspectat de comiterea a peste 1,000 de fapte incriminatoare, sustine ca este nevinovat si declara ca rolul sau in gruparea 17 Noiembrie a fost "inventat de catre serviciile secrete anglo-americane". Pe de alta parte, amprentele culese de politie de pe tocul unei arme confiscate in cursul raidului de anul trecut se potrivesc cu cele ale lui Giotopulos.
