LATEST UPDATE, 18.26: The 53-year old demonstrator was a member of the stalinist union, PAME. His name was Dimitris Kotsaridis. It is officially confirmed by the hospital’s report that the 53-year old carried no head injuries as originally reported, and that he has died from inhaling an excessive amount of asphyxiation gas shot by the police.
A rough translation of the official medical report from the Evangelismos hospital:
At 16.45 this evening a 53-year old male was brought to our hospital by the Ambulance Service with no pulse, no breathing mydriasis and an isoelectric line in his cardiogram. He carried no wounds, yet the doctors’ attempts to resuscitate him proved fruitless.

This is difficult. This man was a worker, killed by the chemical weapons of the state. Having seen the pictures of PAME members defending Parliament, with the murderous, fascist cops, against the rage of anti-authoritarians, I just hope that the rank and file of the Stalinists see who their REAL enemy is- In the UK, the BBC is framing the story as if this man died as the result of the battle between the Stalinists and the autonomists, a lie of-course, and PAME has alot to answer for…
