Sect of Revolutionaries Claims Shooting

The Greek militant group called Sect of Revolutionaries, sometimes translated as Rebel Sect, claimed responsibility for the shooting of known journalist Sokratis Giolias in Athens recently.

The group sent a seven page statement, in CD form, to the local newspaper Ta Nea.

"Rebel Sect ... claimed responsibility for the killing of Giolias," said an unnamed police official.

Ta Nea said it will publish the Sect's statement by Wednesday.

Giolias was tricked into leaving his home and then shot more than a dozen times.
