But Mr Kasidiaris, who had served in the Greek military’s special forces, hit
Ms Kanelli around the face three times. A public prosecutor ordered his
immediate arrest.
Mr Kasidiaris was elected to Parliament in the country’s recent inconclusive
polls. Deputies from all seven parties that won parliament seats in the May
6 polls had been invited on the show.
“The government condemns in the most categorical way the attack by Golden
Dawn spokesman Ilias Kasidiaris against Liana Kanelli and Rena Dourou,”
government spokesman Dimitris Tsiodras said. “This attack is an attack
against every democratic citizen.”
Mr Tsiodras called on Golden Dawn to condemn its member’s actions.
Golden Dawn, which vehemently denies the neo-Nazi label, has been accused of
being behind violent attacks against immigrants.
The party won nearly 7 percent of the vote on May 6, giving it 21 seats in the
300-member Parliament. It was a radical increase from its showing in the
previous elections in 2009, when the party had won just 0.31 percent of the
vote.
Greeks
reeling from two years of austerity amid their country’s vicious financial
crisis punished the two formerly main parties, the conservative New
Democracy and socialist PASOK at the polls, turning instead to radical
smaller parties to the right and left of the political spectrum.
The 300 deputies took up their seats for a day last month before parliament
was dissolved and new elections called as no party had won enough votes to
form a government on its own, and negotiations for a coalition government
collapsed after 10 days.
