Greek far-right Golden Dawn leaders go on trial
Leaders of Greece's far-right Golden Dawn party are among 69 people who have gone on trial on charges including murder and being part of a criminal group.
The session began at a top security prison in Athens, without some of the key defendants present.
Security forces are braced for trouble, with party supporters and anti-fascist groups vowing to stage protests.
Golden Dawn polled third in the January general election.
Critics describe the anti-immigrant party as a neo-Nazi group.
All 18 of the far-right party's MPs in the previous Greek parliament are among the defendants, but only a handful of them were in the specially-built courtroom for the start of the trial.
Leader Nikos Michaloliakos, 57, who was released recently from prison, is being kept under house arrest and was not in court on Monday.
