ATHENS (Reuters) - A Greek court on Tuesday ordered the pre-trial detention of a 31-year-old man on terrorism-related charges over an Athens apartment blast which killed a man and hurt a woman last week, legal and police sources said.

The bomb exploded as it was being made, police have said, linking the incident with anti-establishment guerrilla groups. So far three people face charges in the case.
