ATHENS (Reuters) - Two Turkish citizens who flew from Turkey to Greece in a motor glider that fell in the sea off the Greek island of Evia late Saturday have been arrested and face deportation, government officials said on Monday.

The Greek coast guard found the two men, ages 32 and 33, on a beach near the town of Karystos on the island of Evia. They were taken to hospital and arrested as they did not have any travel documents, a Greek coast guard official said.
