Greenpeace activist Jonathan D Beauchamp (from New Zealand) is released on bail from the SIZO 1 detention centre in St. Petersburg.
The Kalininskiy Court in St Petersburg granted bail to Jonathan on Thursday (21th November) pending the payment of 2 million ruble bail. He has now left the detention centre, but the conditions of his bail are not yet fully known.
The 'Arctic 30' (twenty-eight Greenpeace International activists, as well as a freelance photographer and a freelance videographer) face charges of piracy and hooliganism in Russia for a peaceful protest against Arctic oil drilling in the Pechora Sea.
