Description
http://www.euronews.net/ A Greek couple fearing for their jobs threatened to commit suicide by jumping from the window ledge of their office in Athens.
Both are now safe: the husband was first persuaded to come down but the wife remained for about five hours before going back into the building.
They work for a state owned housing company under threat of closure.
Underlining the plight of many people in the country, they said their pay had been cut and they had debts and a mortgage they couldn't pay.
Other employees have also staged a sit-in protest.
