Three Britons questioned Conscript testing.

Three young Britons are being questioned by police on the Ionian island of Corfu over the death of a 60-year-old British holidaymaker who was hit by the propeller of a speedboat while swimming, local media reported yesterday. According to Corfupress.gr, the suspects were taken in for questioning based on the accounts of witnesses who allegedly saw the incident on Monday at Avlaki beach. The victim has been identified as 60-year-old Claire Glatman, a mother of four who had been on vacation with her husband and one of her children. The speedboat left the scene of the accident, according to witnesses, who said the coast guard responded immediately but were unable to resuscitate Glatman. An autopsy is expected to reveal the cause of her death, though initial reports point to severe blood loss. The coast guard has reportedly confiscated a speedboat belonging to the family of one of the three suspects. The family of the suspect in question owns a villa near where the speedboat was found, in the resort of Agios Stefanos.

Vehicles torched. Six cars and a motorcycle were torched in different parts of the Greek capital early yesterday, according to the fire service, which is investigating the possibility that the incidents were related. The fire service was first called out to the East Attica town of Pallini, where five parked cars were set on fire by unknown assailants. Another car was then torched in Aspropyrgos, western Attica, as was a motorcycle in the southern Athens suburb of Kallithea. The fire service dispatched 12 firetrucks to respond to these incidents.

All new army conscripts this month will be tested for the coronavirus, following an order issued by Greece’s Civil Protection authority. The ministry said the measure was introduced at the behest of Deputy Civil Protection Minister Nikos Hardalis to ensure the “safety of the personnel of the Hellenic Armed Forces.” The testing will be conducted by teams of the armed forces and the National Public Health Organization.

The operation, which took place on Monday, led to the arrest of a 46-year-old man and a 23-yearold woman – both residents of the house. The pair were to appear before a prosecutor after three packages with 794 grams of heroin were confiscated.
