Ex-Greek PM Papademos hurt after letter bomb explodes in car

ATHENS: Former Greek prime minister Lucas Papademos, who oversaw a controversial debt swap in 2012, was wounded Thursday by a letter bomb that detonated inside his car, the first terror attack targeting a former leader in decades.

Papademos, who headed an interim coalition government at the height of Greece's fiscal crisis, was wounded as he read his post in the back of a black Mercedes, police said.
