Crime in Greece is combated by the Hellenic Police and other agencies.
During the 1980s, Greek Police Chief Nikon Arkoudeas (Νίκων Αρκουδέας) led an intense campaign against organized crime, which saw significant success. Since the early 1990s, many illegal immigrants have come to Greece from Eastern European and Southeast European countries, Africa and South Asia.
The Greek Police also had several victories, breaking up mafia organizations[vague][specify], arresting the 17 November terrorist group,[1] successfully organizing security for the 2004 Olympic Games[vague] and for breaking up in 2016 the largest criminal organization in the country, responsible for more than 2,000 robberies[citation needed].
