At least five people have been injured in the Greek city of Piraeus after a march marking the anniversary of the murder of an anti-fascism rapper descended into violence.<br /><br />Earlier the march attended by the victim’s family and anti-racist groups had passed off peacefully.<br /><br />Father of victim Pavlos Fyssas explained why he was on the march:<br /><br />“People have to remember what happened to my Pavlos. People have to fight and realize what fascism means,” said Panagiotis Fyssas.<br /><br />Pavlos Fyssas was stabbed by a supporter of Greece’s ultra-nationalist, neo-Nazi party, Golden Dawn.<br /><br />Giorgos Roupakias, the man who has confessed to the murder, is out on bail after serving 18 months in pretrial detention.<br /><br />Activist Elli Pantazopoulou explained there was much to fight for:<br /><br />“We demonstrate against the neo-Nazis, against Golden Dawn. We have a main goal to fight against them and put them in prison for their crimes and assassinations and at the same time we want to close down their offices.”<br /><br />Euronews reporter Michalis Arampatzoglou: <br />“Four years after the murder of Pavlos Fyssas the trial is still ongoing and but Golden Dawn’s members remain free. The family of the victim is demanding justice.”<br /><br />Tension followed an anti-fascist protest, marking 4 years since Pavlos Fyssas killing.#photojournalism #antifa pic.twitter.com/kNWvQaJsjd— Savvas Karmaniolas (@savvaskarma) September 18, 2017<br />
