Many of the prisoners had been held in cells on remand since July 2024, despite not taking action or causing any disruption at Heathrow Airport as accused. They will now be released.

Some of the defendants are to pay £2,000 court costs for a trial which lasted 7 weeks. 2/3

Trials of nonviolent activists are ongoing.

A 10-day trial is underway in Manchester for 5 people who allegedly planned to cause nonviolent disruption at Manchester airport in order to highlight the desperate need for action on climate change.

They must receive a fair trial.
