"...the problem of #police violence against Roma goes beyond a series of isolated incidents. The Commissioner recommends that the Greek authorities ensure prompt and effective investigations into all allegations of #violence, #racism and #discrimination against Roma, including by members of the law enforcement authorities, with due consideration to any possible racist motive. He also invites them to strengthen the training of law enforcement officers and the judiciary on human rights compliant policing and to collect and publish data regarding disciplinary and criminal investigations into allegations of racial profiling, racially motivated police violence and excessive use of force by members of law enforcement."
