A 17-year-old was charged with two crimes and two misdemeanors by a prosecutor on Sunday as part of a group that attacked and injured MeRA25 party leader Yanis Varoufakis.
Varoufakis was attacked in Exarchia on Friday evening and was treated at Evangelismos Hospital. The teenager was arrested on Saturday.
The charges read to the 17-year-old include the crimes of serious physical harm and forming a gang, and the misdemeanors of illegal violence and illegal possession of arms. Any other members of the group found will face similar charges.
The teenager, who media reports say is known to authorities, will testify before a juvenile court investigator on Monday.
