Basingstoke, United Kingdom—Far from the madding crowd in a small courtroom in southern England, a 13-year girl held her mother’s hand as she pleaded guilty to participating in Britain’s worst riots in over a decade.
Officials have blamed far-right agitators for fuelling the disturbances, including supporters of the former English Defense League, an Islamophobic group founded in 2009 which had close links to football hooligan “firms.” An 11-year-old boy was charged with offenses, including possessing petrol bombs, during trouble in Belfast, while two 12-year-old boys were convicted of violence towards police in Manchester, northwest England.Around 50 youths under the age of 18 have been charged, according to police figures.The family of Kieron Gatenby, 19, sobbed in court as he was sentenced to 16 months detention in a centre for young offenders after being filmed throwing an egg during riots in Hartlepool, northeast England.
