A 35-year-old Israeli tourist was arrested on Crete, Greece for negligent arson after lighting a BBQ at a rented villa near Sellia despite explicit warnings from the owner and an island-wide burn ban.
Wind carried embers into dry vegetation, sparking a wildfire that took over 60 firefighters and helicopters four hours to contain.
So to summarize
>There's a prohibition in barbecue due to the drought
>Man decides "whatever I don't care" starts barbecue from a rented villa
>Rented villa had a prohibition notice regarding barbecue
>Paid 10K € bail with conditions after his hearing
>Defense says fire started 60 meters away. Says notice was included on a notice with the Wifi password that only included the prohibition in fine print.
Bullshit part. This implies he either read it and ignored it, or it happened and then read it, which is just stupid.
