Skopjian truck driver attacked in Greece
truck drivers from Bogdanci, were physically attacked by 50 Greeks last night.
The attack happened in the city of Larissa when the three were returning to Skopia At Larissa, they were forcibly stopped by Greeks who at the moment were gathered for a strike. The truck had been stopped because of its Skopia license plates.
The Greeks surrounded the truck and several of them entered the truck cabin, dragging the Skopjians out of it. From the three, Ilija Sapkarev was maltreated the most because he had a Skopjian flag in the cabin.
The Greeks took his flag out, and hurled it to the ground. When Ilija attempted to protect his flag he was kicked in his kidneys.
There were 5 Greek police officers present when the incident occurred. The policemen did not intervene, rather, helped the Greek mob by telling them to rip off the 'MK' (intl. code) insignia from the back of the truck and everywhere where the insignia was visible.
The Skopians crossed the St Mary border crossing several hours later, and reported the incident to the Ministry of Interior, who notified the Skopian Foreign Ministry.
The three Skopjian drivers work for the trucking company "RiveSped" in Bogdanci. Today, no one from Rivesped wanted to speak in front of camera about the incident.
Latest information is that the Skopjian Foreign Ministry is awaiting for the official MI report, after this a note of Protest will be sent to Athens.
