In the summer of 2007, he completed his many years of study in economics at Cambridge University in the UK. A few days later, in late August, he was accused of stealing cash from a supermarket in Chania as an accomplice with young Englishmen. Over the past two years, according to police information, he has been involved in the "Conspiracy of Fire Nuclei" group. This is the "impressive" biography of a man from Crete, aged 30, who is one of the five anarchists arrested in Nea Philadelphia on 30 April, 2013. After the action, he was accused of robbing a branch of the Agricultural Bank in Pirgetos, Larissa, on 21 December 2011, when 48,000 euro were stolen. The two perpetrators were armed with Kalashnikovs. After the robbery, they got in a car stolen in the area of ​​Thessaloniki and fled in an unknown direction.

There is also evidence of his complicity in a robbery of the same bank on 19 October 2012, when the attackers were four and, in addition, were armed with guns. Two of them broke the surveillance cameras while escaping from the scene. Furthermore, it appears that he took part in the robbery in Velvendo, Kozani, three months ago - a robbery, which is also attributed to "Fire Nuclei" but the police are unable to prove anything in particular.

The first time the young man attracted the attention of the police was on 20 August 2007. Then, a four-member gang tried to steal a cash register with 2,000 euro from the central supermarket in Chania. However, the police came and the perpetrators threw away the cash register with the money. The anarchist was arrested in a car and the evidence of his guilt was a text message that read, "We learnt that they have caught you. Call us when you are out." The investigation revealed that the young man, aged 24 at the time, had returned a few weeks earlier from the UK, where he had graduated from the University of Cambridge. At the same time, it became clear that he was involved in anarchist groups in Chania and that he had participated in anarchist actions outside of Greece, at the meetings of the leaders of global economic powers.

There are other cases of young anarchists from the town, mainly involved in "Fire Nuclei," who graduated from the best schools of the country; some of them were classmates at the private school Arsakeio as well. However, this is the first time that a student of such a renowned university is involved in an armed group. According to the information, accomplices of the anarchist in the robbery in Chania were two Englishmen, his ideological comrades. The Greek had been released and in the following years, he had been visiting the headquarters of the anarchists in Thessaloniki and Athens, mainly with a 31-year-old anarchist from Thessaloniki, who was also arrested in Nea Philadelphia.

The other two arrested in the cafeteria on Dekelias Sreet in Nea Philadelphia are Phivos Charisis Poulios and Anargiros Dalios. In a letter published on the website of the anarchists on Thursday, they denied their involvement in the "Conspiracy of Fire Nuclei" organization.
