Following a raid on a cafe in the northern Athenian suburb of Nea Philadelphia on Tuesday that led to the arrest of five people linked to the urban guerrilla group Conspiracy of the Cells of Fire, police were said to be seeking another two people, including a woman who had been in the cafe at the time of the raid but who managed to elude arrest.

According to sources, the two additional suspects are believed to be newly recruited members of the guerrilla group which has claimed responsibility for a series of bombings on police and political targets over the past few years.
