Greek police on Thursday uncovered evidence linking six arrested members of a terrorist group to a rocket-propelled attack on the US embassy in Athens three years ago, dpa reported. Greek Police Chief Lefteris Oikonomou said officials had found computer hard drives inside a car of one of the six arrested suspects which contained statements by Revolutionary Struggle, including one that claimed responsibility for the 2007 against the embassy, which caused damage but no injuries. Oikonomou also said statements linked the group to 16 other attacks which were carried out between 2003 and 2009. Police also discovered lists of journalists, businessmen and politicians who are considered targets of future attacks. Earlier this week, a Greek prosecutor charged six people for participating in the country's most active terrorist organisation. Five men and one woman were also charged with arms offenses, carrying out explosions and attempted homicide and face up to 25 years in prison if found guilty. During the raids, police also found two guns, ammunition and more than 120,000 euros (160,000 dollars) in cash. Since it first emerged in 2003 following the capture of terrorist organisation November 17, Revolutionary Struggle has targeted government buildings and bombed banks and the Athens Stock Exchange. The group reappeared shortly after the police killing of a teenager in December 2008, claiming responsibility for shooting at riot police guarding the culture ministry in central Athens.
