Nikos Michaloliakos is leaving prison, citing health reasons. The Golden Dawn leader was imprisoned in Domokos, having been convicted as a leading member of the party, which was classified by the court as a criminal organization. The decision was made by the Lamia Judicial Council of misdemeanors, ordering the release of Nikos Michaloliakos, with the main protagonist of the criminal organization ‘Golden Dawn’ still under restrictions, such as house arrest and monthly appearances at a police station for the next three years. Michaloliakos had also been released about 1.5 years ago, with the court’s decision drawing strong reactions. The decision for provisional release of the Golden Dawn leader was overturned by the Judicial Council of Appeals in Lamia, and it was decided that he would remain in custody.
