당시 미해결
- No verified motive beyond the psychological frame police have set; no verbatim police quote; no agreement among outlets on the victims' ages or on which body part was more seriously wounded.
- Whether the pre-existing confinement order had been complied with, and what triggered the morning outburst.
지켜보겠다고 한 점
- The magistrate hearing and any pretrial detention ruling in the days ahead.
- Whether Greek authorities release the victims' identities, which would settle the age discrepancy and clarify who is being treated where.
- Whether the case becomes a vehicle for a wider political debate over street safety and tourism policing in central Athens.
