[01] Baby Jesus stolen from nativity scene
For a third time in past years, unidentified individuals have stolen
the doll symbolizing baby Jesus from the manger in a Nativity scene set
up on Thessaloniki's central Aristotelous Square.
After they took the doll in the early morning hours on Thursday, the
culprits telephoned the media and said that the reasons for their
action were outlined in a CD they left at the Thessaloniki Aristotelion
University Philosophy School.
Police found the cd and, according to information, the Baby Jesus doll
thieves belong to a previously unknown organization and an
investigation is underway for their arrest.
The Thessaloniki municipality has replaced the stolen doll, noting that
similar incidents had taken place again in 1993 and 1996.
