Brecon Tree Camp Arrests
June 20th 2007
We acted for six individuals on 19th June 2007 and six more on 20th June 2007 who were arrested at the Brecon Tree Camp where there was a longstanding protest against the gas pipeline, and the destruction of the local habitat. On 7th June 2007 at Cardiff Crown Court an Injunction Order was issued to the National Grid and following this on 19th and 20th June announcements were made by the High Sherriff and High Court Enforcement Officers requiring all those present to leave the Penpont Site immediately. Those who did not leave were arrested for obstruction contrary to Section 10 of the Criminal Law Act 1977 and taken to Brecon Police Station.
