Saturday's violence followed similar scenes the previous night, when several hundred people lit bonfires in The Street and thrown stones from buildings onto police vehicles.

Lina E was regarded as a leader of a far-left group responsible for carrying out a brutal campaign of violence against the extreme right over several years, including attacks with hammers, iron bars and baseball.

After Lina E was found guilty, there were far-left protests in several cities and police were targeted with bottles and firework and baseball bats.

Three men convicted with alongside Her - Criminal defendants' second names are not made public - were also given jail sentences on Wednesday.
