Man with offensive banner at Greece-Bosnia football match identified

Police identified the man who held an offensive banner during the football match between Greece and Bosnia-Herzegovina last Sunday at a World Cup qualifying match.

A banner with the slogan “Noz, zica, Srebrenica” (“Knife, wire, Srebrenica”) was displayed among Greek fans during the game, referring to the killing of thousands of Bosnian Muslims by ethnic Serb forces in Srebrenica in 1995

According to judicial sources, the man will appear before the prosecutor in Piraeus shortly. 

On Monday, Deputy Sports Minister Giorgos Vasiliadis sent a letter to the head of Greek police requesting the identification and arrest of those involved.
