That's excellent news. That also means they are quite free to go, as when they return to their home, I am very certain the government does not agree to send the back to Greece for the possible trial.
I hope.

On local TV it was just said that they have been charged and have to face the trial in the future.

Lucky for them they did not do that in Israel.
I recall a story about someone almost got sentenced to death for snapping pictures down there, but luckily got away with a stark warning - to never set a foot inside Israel again, or else.

They got to go home, but this deal was in part facilitated with the PM of the Czech Republic dealing directly with the PM of Greece. I'm expecting everyone to play by the rules at this point, since the alternative might sour relationship between the two countries (he says, not knowing anything about the current relationship).

On the other hand, it is possible that either they were extradited (sp?) or that the charges were (mostly) dropped, but a hearing should still take place.
Off to scour the greek news sites again.
