After his conviction, he returned to prison. He had been arrested by Counter-Terrorism Police officers who had information that he was in Thessaloniki, Greece. An arrest warrant was pending against him, when two other members of the specific organization had been arrested, after the location of Giafka in Holargos, Attica.

The 49-year-old had then managed to escape, although injured, as he allegedly participated in another armed robbery, in October 2019, at a gaming store in Cholargo, where, in fact, he had accidentally injured himself in the leg with a Kalashnikov.
