Golden Dawn leader Nikos Mihaloliakos due in court

The head of Greece's far-right Golden Dawn party, Nikos Mihaloliakos, is to appear in court to answer charges of organising a criminal group.

He was one of six MPs arrested over the weekend amid outrage over the recent murder of an anti-racist musician.

Three of the detained MPs have been freed pending trial while a fourth was remanded in custody.

Ilias Kasidiaris was freed on bail while fellow MPs Ilias Panagiotaros and Nikos Michos were freed under travel bans but with no bail set.

The BBC's Mark Lowen reports from outside the court.
