Two women to face court over GE wheat destruction in Australia

Two Sydney women will face court over a Greenpeace attack on a genetically modified wheat trial in Canberra in July. Greenpeace activists allegedly used brush cutters to destroy a crop at the CSIRO experimental station at Ginninderra. The women, one aged 47 from Willoughby and the other, 34, from North Bondi, will be summonsed to appear in the ACT Magistrates Court charged with a number of offences including trespass and damaging Commonwealth property.
