Correction: Greece-Obit-Makarezos

ATHENS, Greece — In an Aug. 5 obituary of Nikolaos Makarezos, a senior figure in the 1967-74 Greek dictatorship, The Associated Press erroneously reported that Makarezos was sentenced to death for treason after the fall of the military regime — a sentence later commuted to life imprisonment.

According to the 1975 court ruling, Makarezos was sentenced to death for mutiny, and to life imprisonment for treason. The death sentence was later commuted to life imprisonment.
