Athens: Greek youths are planning more protests in Athens and other major cities as part of the anniversary of the fatal police shooting of a teenager that sparked riots last year.
Extensive clashes between rioting youths and police marred protests by students and anarchists over the weekend. Authorities arrested dozens.
A large march by secondary schoolchildren is scheduled for central Athens at noon Monday, while smaller protests are scheduled throughout the country.
The weekend violence echoed the rioting that engulfed Greek cities for more than two weeks after the 15-year-old boy was killed on December 6, 2008. But turnout at the protests was much lower, and damage to private property limited.
