Decision Day

Today is the day that Greek prosecutors announce their findings into the scandal involving the dynamic duo of Greek sprinting, Costas Kenteris and Katerina Thanou

You will recall that these were the two idiots who avoided a drugs test, by faking a motorcycle accident.

Interestingly enough one of the main witnesses, sports editor Filippos Sirigos, has been stabbed and beaten. Gas canisters and petrol were also sent to the owner of the newspaper that Sirigos works for.

Seemingly some people don't like the truth to come out.

Prime Minister Costas Karamanlis has condemned the attack, noting that it could damage Greece's reputation.

What's the betting that the dynamic duo get let off with a very light sentence?
