A British journalist who has fought for justice for 11 years since being brutally beaten by Italian police is to be awarded €350,000 (£280,000) compensation by the Italian government.
Mark Covell was left with eight broken ribs, smashed teeth and a shredded lung after he was assaulted outside a school during the Genoa G8 meeting in 2001.
As he slipped into a coma, police raided the school, beating scores of other activists sleeping there.
Italy's highest court of appeal suspended senior officers from duty in July for their role in the raid.
Now, after launching a civil case for compensation, Covell will accept the sum offered out of court by the interior ministry.
