Facism: Greece crackdown: Golden Dawn leader Michaloliakos charged

The leader of the far-right Golden Dawn party, Nikolaos Michaloliakos, has been formally charged with belonging to a criminal organization.

Four more Golden Dawn MPs, a party leader in an Athens suburb and 12 other people face the same charges.

They were arrested on Saturday amid anger over the murder on 18 September of anti-racist musician, Pavlos Fyssas.

A man held for the stabbing told police he was a Golden Dawn supporter, though the party strongly denies any link.
