[Printed under cartoon: Athens, December 10. The Greek Government today announced the release of 21 political prisoners held as dangerous to public security since the army coup in April 1967. The release followed recommendations by a three-member committee of judges who screened the case of all political prisoners. There are about 1800 political detainees held on various islands and remote villages, arrested after the 1967 takeover as danger to public order and security.
