EKAM is The Special Suppressive Antiterrorist Unit (Greek: ΕΚΑΜ – Ειδική Κατασταλτική Αντιτρομοκρατική Μονάδα, Eidiki Katastaltiki Antitromokratiki Monada, EKAM) and is the Greek counter-terrorism unit of the Hellenic Police. It is the most distinguished part of the Hellenic Police. It was formed in 1978 when two counter-terrorist units were created within the two police divisions that existed then (Hellenic Gendarmerie and the Cities Police), which were united into a single body in 1984, the Hellenic Police. In the beginning, the unit had only 150 men, but when Greece became the host country of the 2004 Summer Olympics their number increased to 200 after reassessing the needs for the magnitude of the event

The Special Suppressive Antiterrorist Unit of the Hellenic Police operates all around Greece and abroad whenever it is deemed necessary. It has confronted challenges such as hostage situations, and it has contributed to the arrests of many dangerous criminals. The EKAM played a key role in the dismantling of the November 17 and Revolutionary People's Struggle terrorist organizations. In March 2003, it confronted successfully an incident on a Turkish airplane, which was hijacked while it flew from Istanbul to Ankara (flight no. 160) and ended up at the Athens International Airport at the order of the hijacker. In a successful operation, the unit stormed the plane and arrested the hijacker by incapacitating him with a taser and releasing all hostages safely.
