Police round up over 100 people following ban on public assemblies on Grigoropoulos' death anniv.

Greek police have brought in over 100 people to stations for identification, according to police sources, with 60 of these rounded up in the Exarchia neighborhood of Athens, on Sunday.

Confrontation between police and a group of people holding a banner occurred, after which police dispersed the crowd.

The government has prohibited public gatherings on Sunday, the anniversary of the murder of Alexis Grigoropoulos, 15, by a policeman and patrolling the center of Athens to disperse crowds under the coronavirus pandemic. Metro and tram stations have been also shut down selectively.

Grigoropoulos was killed in Exarchia on December 6, 2008, an event that sparked massive riots downtown.
