Briton in court on riot charge
 http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/3012780.stm

A British man will appear in a Greek court on Monday, to face charges of throwing petrol bombs during last week's European Union summit.

The 30-year-old, who has not been named, was one of 104 people detained on Saturday, the final day of the three-day summit in Porto Carras.

The British consul in Athens, Donald Holder, said: "The man was allegedly caught throwing these Molotov cocktails at riot police and allegedly having several in his rucksack. That doesn't look too brilliant."

Mr Holder said the man had been taken to hospital after badly hurting his arm.

He will appear before magistrates in the city of Thessaloniki, about 75 miles from Porto Carras.

The man could be given bail or may face imprisonment, Mr Holder said.
