TIRANA, May 16 – Greeks brutally beat two Albanian immigrants in Rethymno of Crete. They were sent in serious condition at the hospital after they were beaten late at night from five Greek citizens. the incident occurred about 4 o′clock in the morning.
Two Albanians were riding in their car when they are attacked without reason by a group of Greeks, who were shouting to leave. the aggressors have shot Albanians brutally with sticks and strong means.
Greece was covered last weekend from demonstrations against immigrants following a recent spate of racially motivated attacks in the Greek capital by far-right groups.
At least 25 people were hospitalized after a far-right protest last week, during which dark-skinned immigrants were chased and beaten in the street by gangs of youths.
The violence was triggered by a deadly mugging in central Athens, which witnesses say was carried out by a group of men believed to be immigrants.
