October 26, 2021, London, England, United Kingdom: Highbury Corner Magistrates Court, London, UK, 26th October 2021. Tree Protectors Maria Gallastegui (62), Sebastian Roblin (27), Stefan Wright (28), Wictoria Zieke (26) walk out of Court at the end of the first day of trial. Despite last March's High Court ruling and the falling of every charge connected with the occupation of the tunnels under Euston Square on October 6, HS2 legal team amended the accusations only last Friday (22nd of October), and the tree protectors were still summoned to Court today..HS2 legal team considers the presence of the activists on-site before the passage of possession from Camden Borough to HS2 as “an obvious [alleged] obstruction†of public works. Earlier this month, the Court clarified that there was no evidence of any constructor or construction taking place on the land at that time.†The environmental activists protested against the controversial 100 billion High Speed 2 plans, defined by the Woodland Trust as 'a grave threat to the UK's ancient woods' (Credit Image: © Sabrina Merolla/ZUMA Press Wire)
