ATHENS, Greece—Police say a bomb has exploded outside the Athens
home of a criminal prosecutor, causing damage to the house,
nearby buildings and cars but no injuries.  The Thursday attack
happened outside the house of prosecutor Paraskevi Kalaitzi,
best known in Greece for trying the case of an organized crime
ring convicted of several offenses, including the murder of a
businessman and the kidnapping of a Greek shipowner.  The
shipowner, Periklis Panagopoulos, was kidnapped in January 2009
and held for eight days until his family paid a ransom.
Eighteen people were convicted in the organized crime trial,
which lasted 18 months and ended in March 2012. Two of those
convicted were sentenced to double life terms. Other sentences
ranged from seven years to life.
