Court hears case of five students wanted in Italy

Dozens of people protested outside the Appeals Court in Athens Thursday as judges began hearing the cases of five Greek students who are facing extradition to Italy. Italian authorities have accused the five men of causing damage during protests at Expo 2015 in Milan. The Appeals Court is due to issue its verdict on two of the five cases this morning and then continue hearing the remaining cases Friday and on Monday. The offenses the five men have been charged with by Italian authorities carry prison sentences of between eight and 15 years.
