Olympic employees scuffle with police
Several hundred Olympic Airlines employees protested in front of the carrier’s offices on Syngrou Avenue yesterday in opposition to the government’s plans to privatize the company. At times, the protesters fought with riot police that had been sent to prevent them from entering OA’s offices. Traffic on Syngrou was also brought to a halt from time to time as the demonstrators spilled onto the street. The European Commission cleared the sell-off this week.
