BBC: The spokesman for Greece's far-right Golden Dawn, who slapped a left-wing politician and threw water over another on a TV debate, is suing his victims.Ilias Kasidiaris went to an Athens court to announce he would sue the women for defamation.
Mr Kasidiaris is also suing the TV station, Antenna, for illegal detention after staff tried to stop him leaving following the incident last Thursday.
Golden Dawn will be contesting a critical Greek election this Sunday.
Mr Kasidiaris avoided an arrest warrant for the attack, lying low until it expired.
Under Greek law, the arrest warrant for a minor crime must be carried out by midnight the day after the incident took place for an immediate trial - otherwise it goes to judicial procedure and a much later trial date is set. » | Monday, June 11, 2012
