A 41-year-old Turkish man wanted for murder was arrested in Thessaloniki on Wednesday.
Greek police attempted to stop him while he was riding a motorcycle, but he ignored their signal and fled. He was later apprehended and presented a fake residence permit.
Authorities confirmed he was sought by Turkish authorities for a 2019 murder, with an Interpol red notice issued for his arrest. Additionally, he was found to have violated parole conditions, with 1.5 years remaining on a previous prison sentence.
The suspect denies involvement in the crime and faces charges of forgery, disobedience and traffic violations.
