England football fan Garry Mann has transferred to Britsh Jail. Garry Mann, 53, denies being involved in the fight and claims he did not receive a fair trial in Albufeira.

He will serve the rest of his two-year sentence in a British jail.

Fair Trials International said the transfer application had been accepted in principle but no date had yet been set.

The Birmingham City supporter was drinking with friends in a bar in Albufeira when a riot involving football fans began in a nearby street.

He was arrested, tried and convicted within 48 hours.

Mann's MP Hugh Robertson asked Foreign Secretary William Hague to look into the case, saying the conviction was unsafe.
