Kathimerini website in Greece reports today that a 24-year-old Greek-American was released yesterday (January 28, 2010) on conditional bail, after defending himself before a Cretan prosecutor on charges related to two arson attacks on the Etz Hayyim Synagogue in Hania, Crete.
On January 25, a 33-year-old Briton was remanded in custody in connection with the attack. Two other suspects -- a 24-year-old local man and a 23-year-old Briton -- were released on bail pending trial.
A fifth man -- also an American -- is being sought, but is believed to have fled to Italy.
The synagogue -- the only one on the entire island of Crete -- was severely damaged in the January 5 and 16 fires.
