Trident Conspiracy Verdict Expected Tomorrow or Thursday
|
Today the Manchester Crown Court trial of two Trident Ploughshares
activists has been taken up entirely with legal arguments. These took place
with the jury absent and cannot be reported at this stage.
Sylvia Boyes (57), a peace campaigner from Keighley in Yorkshire, and
River, an Open University tutor from Manchester, are facing charges of
conspiring to commit criminal damage after their attempt in November 1999
to decommission the Trident submarine Vengeance.
It is expected that the final speeches to the jury will be made tomorrow.
The verdict could be delivered tomorrow, or on Thursday.
