CORFU. Four Lefkimmi residents were tried on Monday for their part in the incidents at the end of June 2018 when the riot police had just come to Lefkimmi.
Two Lefkimmi residents were sentenced to two years imprisonment suspended for three years by the Corfu Court for their part in the incidents in June 2018 on the second day of the riot police's presence in Lefkimmi. This was the first of two trials for this case.
One of the two men sentenced has already been remanded in custody - charged with the murder of 63-year-old Petrit Zilfe in South Corfu in December 2018.
The second trial will be for the same incidents with the riot police when one of the police suffered head injuries caused by a concrete block. Both men face charges of resisting authority and one of them is also charged with grievous bodily harm. The court verdict is awaited.
