Magda Fyssa: Emotion After Golden Dawn Conviction Upheld

Magda Fyssa, the mother of the murdered Pavlos Fyssas, expressed her emotion after the Court of Appeals upheld the conviction of Golden Dawn. Following the announcement of the decision, she stated: "I'm taking my Pavlos and leaving, we won."

"We're done... After 11 years, we're done. Today I'm going home thinking that I won't have to be among those who murdered my child and spread hatred in society again," Mrs. Fyssa said, visibly moved. "Today I go home with my heart just as torn but also a little more relieved, lighter. Eleven years of struggle and I thank all those who fought this fight together. Fortunately, there were many."

Magda Fyssa emphasized: "Pavlos, we won. Having lost... you crushed them. You crushed them, my child. Thank you for everything. Not an inch of land to any fascist. Not an inch, not a step back. I'm taking my Pavlos and leaving. Goodbye."

Upon leaving the courthouse, she held a placard that read: "Pavlos, we did it! Golden Dawn definitively a Nazi criminal organization. You shamed them."

It is recalled that the court upheld the conviction of Giorgos Roupakias, the murderer of Pavlos Fyssas, to life imprisonment and ten years.
