It was a part of Epirus, north-western Greece, with a substantial number of Muslim Albanians called Cams. Following the Greek absorbsion of Epirus at the end of the First Balkan War, many of these Muslims began to be expelled from their territory and either pushed into Albania or sent off to Turkey. This was climaxed after WWII when the whole population was ethnically cleansed. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chameria

I wouldn't be suprised. Greece also treats the Turkish miniority as Muslim Greeks.
They don't have Turkish schools, and yet Greeks complain about Turkey.
At least Greeks in Turkey go to their own Greek Schools, and have their own names.

Extremism targeting the Albanians must be recognized by Greece.

Whatever they did, it was only a result of the discriminatory and oppressive policies of the Greek state prior to WWII...
