Attica drug ring dismantled involving psychologist and folk singer

drug trafficking ring psychologist arrest Attica crime organized crime Greek police

Greek police have dismantled an organized drug-trafficking network operating primarily in Western Attica. The operation led to the arrest of three individuals, including a 41-year-old man identified as the ring's central figure, and a professional psychologist based in Piraeus.

According to investigators, the 41-year-old suspect managed the supply, storage, and processing of significant quantities of drugs, including cannabis and cocaine. He allegedly used his residence in Haidari as a storage facility and utilized a “ghost phone” to evade detection. The psychologist, referred to in communications as “the Doctor,” reportedly supplied the ring with MDMA, LSD, and various pills.

Police report that between July and August 2026, the network conducted approximately 90 transactions totaling 3,800 euros. The ring utilized various methods for distribution, including face-to-face meetings and deliveries via courier companies in packaged parcels.

Case files also mention a well-known Greek folk singer as a customer of the network. Authorities are currently searching for two additional suspects and working to identify 18 other individuals potentially linked to the organization.
