LONDON — Rioters and looters convicted following the violent unrest that convulsed Britain this month will wear orange jumpsuits and help clean up areas affected by their actions, Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg said Tuesday, as part of a “riot payback scheme.”
Clegg, the leader of the Liberal Democrat party, the junior partner in the coalition government, also announced a panel to examine the causes of the widespread violence, burning and looting that left scars across London and several other major cities.
Meanwhile, police charged a 16-year-old boy with murder in the death of a 68-year-old retiree who was attacked during the turmoil.
