The first picture of the video clearly shows that Simon is carrying a blue bag while he is beaten up -- police have denied that Simon was carrying a blue bag. Footage taken from ET3, the national Greek news channel, shows police putting a hammer and an axe inside some black bags picked up from the street and placing them around Simon.
