Greek crime journalist shot dead in Athens in execution-style murder
A prominent Greek crime journalist has been rubbed out in what was described as an "execution-style" murder near his home in Athens.

Giorgos Karaivaz, who sought to illuminate Greece’s seamier underside with his coverage of law and order stories on the private Star TV channel, died of gunshot wounds outside his home in the south of the city.

According to media reports, two men on a cycle of violence drew up beside him and the passenger shot up the journalist as he drove back from work.

Twelve bullet casings were found at the scene and police said Karaivaz was hit at least six times with shots from a 9mm pistol. The weapon was probably muffled with a silencer.

Aristotelia Peloni, a spokesperson for the centre-right government, said the murder had "shocked us all".

“Authorities are already investigating in order to arrest the perpetrators and bring them to justice,” she said.
