Suspect to face prosecutor over Exarchia police station firebombing
A 26-year-old man accused of being part of a group of around 30 people that threw rocks and Molotov cocktails at a police precinct in Exarchia, central Athens, on Friday is due to appear before a magistrate on Tuesday to face charges that include attempted grievous bodily harm and illegal possession of explosives.
The suspect was arrested immediately after the raid, which caused damage but no injuries.
Two more men, aged 18 and 20, were arrested a little later but they are to face misdemeanor charges.
A posting on the Indymedia website on Sunday claimed the attack was carried out in solidarity with five men being held on suspicion of being members of the Conspiracy of Cells of Fire.
