Anti-vaxxer ‘Guardians of the Constitution’ handcuff school principal, abduct him, take him to police

Citizen's Protection Minister Takis Theodorikakos declared that, "Such behaviour is provocative and unacceptable and police should not allow it to be repeated."

The principal was attacked at 8am as he was arriving at the school. A few individuals handcuffed him, abducted him, forcing him to enter an automobile, and drove him to the Pydna-Kolindrou police precinct.

They told police that the principal is "violating the Constitution".

Police initially remanded in custody ten people who came to the precinct to hand over the principal, and are examining the extent of each one's responsibility for the unprecedented incident.

The principal was taken to the Aiginio health clinic for first aid as he had abrasions from the handcuffs.
