Migration Minister Thanos Plevris revealed the crackdown on February 4 during talks on a new migration bill, backed by a law requiring religious sites to get Ministry of Education approval, meet safety standards like ventilation and fire exits, and ensure leaders have clean records. The action follows the sealing of a mosque in Agios Nikolaos run by a Bangladeshi national who faced prison, permit loss, and deportation; similar steps including fines and short jail terms await other non-compliant operators. Officials say the rules apply to all faiths, sparing Greece's legal Muslim minority in Thrace with its 300 protected mosques under the 1923 Treaty of Lausanne, while addressing risks in makeshift spaces often used by migrants from Pakistan and Bangladesh.
