Britons face spy charges in Greece
ATHENS (Reuters) - Twelve Britons are due to appear in a Greek court on Monday charged with spying, a British diplomat has said.
The tourists, who were visiting an air show in the south western town of Kalamata, were arrested on November 8 and were still in custody.
"They have been charged and there will be a court hearing tomorrow," British embassy consul Donald Holden told Reuters.
The detainees had legal representation and were in good health, he said.
Many Greek airbases had open days on November 8 which marks the feast day of Michael, the patron saint of the air force.
The Britons, 11 men and a woman, have denied the charges and say they are members of an aviation enthusiasts' club in the UK.
The court will decide whether there is enough evidence to proceed with a trial, or dismiss it.
Photographing military installations in Greece is strictly forbidden.
