Dozens of activists and politicians affiliated to the Greek neo-Nazi party Golden Dawn are facing trial for criminal offences.

A state prosecutor produced a 700-page document last week which outlined the legal case against more than 50 key party members - in addition to the 16 MPs who are currently in custody pending trial.

The members named in the indictment are accused of using the far-right group as a front to pursue a swathe of illegal activities.

The dossier accused the suspects of murder and weapons offences, as well as attacks on immigrants, left-wingers and gay people.
