In this five pictures combo, taken Sunday, Dec. 6 2009, a uniformed
motorcycle policeman and a plainclothes officer are seen placing a bottle
in a white backpack which is then left next to a detained youth in pyjama
trousers, as three more policemen stand above in the northern Greek city
of Thessaloniki. Greek police have apologized to the 23-year-old, who was
arrested during riots Sunday and charged with having a petrol bomb in his
bag. The youth denied any link with the riots - saying he was caught up in
the fracas when he left home to put the rubbish out - and said the bag was
planted on him during his arrest. After video footage emerged backing his
claim, police withdrew their initial evidence and said the bag had been
erroneously linked with the suspect. A prosecutor has ordered an investigation
into the incident, which police described as "very serious." AP |
