    Well, they were asking for it. lol

    People dont like when you have a big ass camera / lenses and take photos of their property, now imagine military installations.

    Should've listened to the news a few years ago when a bunch of British plane spotters had the same thing happen, except they got sentenced to 20 years in jail.

    So would they actually go through with this? I mean... it's obvious that they're no spies so just confiscate the foto's and leave them be.

    When making photos of abandoned/secured areas you can convince security with a bottle of any alcohol (but not beer ). Seriously, leave one bottle and you can take any pictures but don't steal anything...

    Crazy beyond belief, but far from the first time I've heard of stuff like this happening — sometimes just walking into a sensitive area is enough to be jailed. I think at this point you'd be pretty much retarded to take photos of anything that could remotely be considered sensitive, a thousand times more so when in a foreign country. Just not worth the risk.

    Yeah but this is the EU... I mean, wtf???

    I can understand these charges: "illegal information collection" that those plane spotters ended up with when they dropped the more severe charges. But espionage?

    This is far from justice. If you're a real spy, well then bad luck... you get what you bargained for. But stuff like this is beyond ridiculous.

    Guess it's hard to prove someone is a spy or not though... :/

    Maybe the Greek govt is hoping to settle this with Bohemia for an undisclosed amount?

    Can it at least be neutron bombs so that whatever's left of ancient Greek architecture is left intact? Let's be real, ancient Greece and Gyros were the only good things to come out of that country.
