George Mitsos

George Mitsos was a 38-year-old oil company owner who was murdered in June 2022, an event that triggered a violent feud over the control of petroleum trafficking in the region. His assassination was linked to a series of retaliatory killings within the criminal underworld, as he was suspected of being involved in the murder of another prominent figure in the Greek mafia, Giannis Skaftouras. Mitsos's death intensified the ongoing tensions and fears within the so-called Greek Mafia, ultimately leading to further violence.
