11 Arrests at Sellafield Protest

international / environment Thursday February 14, 2002 21:51 by IMC Editorial Group

Eleven people were arrested during a blockade of Sellafield nuclear reprocessing plant on February 14. Over 150 Irish demonstrators blockaded the roads to the plant for nearly five hours.

The group included people who had spent the previous three days blockading Trident nuclear submarine base in Faslane, Scotland. (report from day 2; day 3)

The protest began at 6am, it was split in two as Sellafield has two main access roads and a blockade began in each of these areas. At the first access point six demonstrators chained themselves across the road in a snake formation. When the police arrived they were largely outnumbered and the specially trained protest unit "SGI" was not available. They pushed peaceful protesters with excessive force and kicked and threatened people in the lock-on. By 7.30am the blockade had created tailbacks of six or seven miles. The protest lasted until noon. Those arrested were released by 6pm under caution - none were charged.

Sellafield Blockade: why it happened.
