 Greece: Inhuman prison conditions in Drapetsona, Athens - Amnesty International
Amnesty International also raised its concern that 12 persons, all non-EU citizens, have been detained for long periods in Drapetsona Detention Centre, in conditions which are inhuman, pending deportation to their country of origin.
The organization is also urging the Greek authorities to take all necessary steps to ensure that prisoners in Drapetsona are not subjected to conditions which may constitute cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment.
The conditions of detention at Drapetsona are very similar to those found by a delegation of the European Committee for the Prevention of Torture (ECPT) when, in March 1993, it visited the premises of the Piraeus Transfer Centre, which is administratively responsible for the Detention Centre of Drapetsona.

 JUDGMENT IN THE CASE OF DOUGOZ v. GREECE
He was held for several months at the Drapetsona Police Station, where, he alleged, he was confined in an overcrowded and dirty cell with insufficient sanitary and sleeping facilities, scarce hot water, no fresh air or natural daylight and no yard in which to exercise.
Although the CPT had not visited the Drapetsona detention centre at that time, the Court noted that the Government had described the conditions in Alexandras as being the same as in Drapetsona.
In the light of the above, the Court considered that the conditions of detention of the applicant in the Alexandras Police Headquarters and the Drapetsona detention centre, in particular the serious overcrowding and absence of sleeping facilities, combined with the inordinate length of his detention, amounted to degrading treatment contrary to Article 3.

In contrast to most areas hit by the quake, the Municipality of Drapetsona, near Piraeus, quickly set up a housing rehabilitation program involving 150 new apartments for the residents of four buildings dating from 1932.
Drapetsona’s Mayor Giorgos Araviadis and Deputy Mayor Vassilis Iggliz told Kathimerini that there had already been a plan to set up a municipal housing program and land was already being bought before the earthquake.
After the Health Ministry provided an area of land and the Environment and Public Works Ministry signed the relevant contract, in September 2005 construction began with a budget of 8.1 million euros under the supervision of the Earthquake Victims’ Rehabilitation Service (YAS).

The "Sempes" has remained docked at a pier off Drapetsona, Piraeus, because its shipping operator has not paid debts to third parties.
Acting on information, coastguard officials boarded the vessel yesterday morning and discovered among the cargo of plastics 925 wooden crates containing military supplies, chiefly rockets and mortar bombs, and thousands of rounds.
