Spain train driver held 'for reckless manslaughter'

The driver of a train that derailed in Spain killing 78 people has been accused of "reckless manslaughter", the interior minister has said.

Jorge Fernandez Diaz said Francisco Jose Garzon Amo, who was slightly hurt in Wednesday's accident, had been taken to a police station.

Mr Garzon is suspected of driving too fast on a bend. Reports say the train was travelling at more than double the speed limit at the time of the crash.

He has refused to answer questions.
