[01] PM chairs meeting on hooliganism, briefed earlier by FM
The timely issue of hooliganism and sports-related violence is the
subject of an ongoing inter-ministerial meeting here on Thursday
morning, chaired by Prime Minister Costas Karamanlis, with the
participation of the relevant ministers of justice, public order, the
minister of state and the deputy culture minister responsible for
sports.
The meeting comes after last month's unprecedented "rumble" in east
Attica prefecture between rival club supporters, an incident that left
one 25-year-old man dead.
Earlier, Costas Karamanlis received Foreign Minister Dora Bakoyannis at
his Maximos Mansion office for talks that focused squarely on foreign
policy issues.
After the meting, which lasted roughly one-and-a-half hours,Bakoyannis
said issues dealing with the Middle East were also discussed, amid a
pending visit to the Greek capital of the president of the Palestinian
National Authority (PNA).
