Golden Dawn: Wife of Nikos Michaloliakos, Eleni Zaroulia, Sent to Prison – Convicted on Appeal

The Athens Court of Appeal has ordered the imprisonment of Eleni Zaroulia, wife of Nikos Michaloliakos, to serve a five-year sentence for membership in a criminal organization. She was initially sentenced to six years but received a suspension until the appeal court's decision. The court rejected her request to convert her sentence to a monetary fine. This marks the first time Zaroulia will be imprisoned, as her initial conviction was suspended. This decision signifies a key stage in the Golden Dawn case and the enforcement of sentences for members of the criminal organization.
