Greenpeace: indictment is heavier
The Greenpeace activists, detained in the Russian city of Murmansk, are still being sued for piracy. It is not true the indictment has been weakened to vandalism. The indictment of vandalism has been added to the original charge, according to Greenpeace.It is not clear where the confusion about the indictment started. The Russian national research committee claimed the indictment for piracy was dropped and only vandalism remained, but according to Greenpeace, the indictments clearly state two allegations. If the piracy charges were dropped, the authorities would have to release the campaigners.
