A new assassination attempt on the backdrop of the indelible shadows of Greek Mafia comes to shake the already tense territory of domestic organized crime. On Friday night in Ano Liosia, a shielded Mercedes is stuck with Kalashnikov. The goal: A 42 -year -old who are well aware of the police – the so -called “Body Builder”.
Just 23 days after the assassination of George Moschouris, known as “Bursties”authorities see new account clearances behind the attempt. Chronological proximity, heavy past and death contracts make up a pattern that reveals a lot – but he says even more with his silence.
By isolation, at the forefront of a new war
“Body Builder” is not any target. A former accused of murdering journalist George Karaivaz and “Dirty Harry”, he was released only in October 2024. He was once a partner of Moschouris – until the summer of 2024, when the relationship appears to have dissolved. And as is often the case in the underworld, old friendships become first suspicious and then deadly.
In September, still incarcerated in Korydallou prisons, he attacked an old member of Greek Mafia, stating that he was acting “on behalf of Edik”. So begins a new narrative: that of the passage to the Edik team, known for the circuit circuit and trafficking cigarettes and at least four executions.

1 million euros your life
According to files and leaks, the amounts for executions are unreal: 1 million euros for the life of Moschouris, Panagos and two more executives. But beyond the background of the revenge, the “Body Builder” is also involved in an attempted extortion in Mykonos, when a shopkeeper paid for the extermination of his partner.
His turn came. Only this time, the execution failed. And the paradox: The victim turned to ELAS. for protection, denying that it has differences with anyone. Silence; Cynicism; Or just survival?
The invisible battle that goes on
In the circuit war, time counts differently. Alliances are changing, faces are liquid, and the truth always crawls behind the last SMS, the last command, the next bullet.
This is not just the story of a failed death contract. It is part of a long, underground civil war – a war waged with Kalashnikov and silent looks, on night -time and shielded cars, on the streets we know but we do not see.
