Forty-five Italian police and medical staff have gone on trial accused of brutality against protesters arrested during the G8 summit in Genoa in 2001.

The case, which opened at a court in Genoa, was adjourned until November. The defendants - which include senior officers from Genoa - deny the charges, including unlawful violence.
