A wake-up call

We should be very alarmed by the fact that an entire area of Attica's western suburbs has been allowed to become a zone of crime and lawlessness.

Nothing illustrates the danger this poses like the death on Friday of a child who was hit by a stray bullet while at school.

This event should be shocking enough to compel each and every citizen of this country to demand that the Greek state impose law and order in what is yet another no-go zone in the country's capital.

After Friday's tragedy, surely there are no more excuses.
