Four people, of Asian descent, were arrested in Tanagra after being found to be photographed in critical facilities of the Greek Defense Industry (ODA) and the 114th Battle Wing. The incident has caused concern for possible espionage, as the detainees possessed significant photographic material. First, the security of the ODA perceived the suspicious activity of the four men – two men, a woman and a young man – who were photographing the facilities. Despite the recommendations to be removed, they moved within walking distance, under a bridge, and continued to capture images, focusing particularly on fighter aircraft Rafale.
Following the notice of the ODA to the Security of the 114th Battle Wing, the four foreign nationals were arrested and taken to the Tanagra Police Department for further investigation.
