About twenty Greenpeace activists protested in the Dutch port of Vlissingen against the import of hardwood from Canada's Great Bear Rainforest. The activists painted the slogan 'Forest Crime' on the Norwegian flagged vessel 'Saga Tide' which was carrying the timber, and prevented the cargo ship from docking. A Greenpeace activist has been locked to the anchor chain of the Norwegian flagged ship, Saga Tide. The Greenpeace vessel the Argus has been arrested by the Dutch Port Authority after the owners of the Saga Tide made this request to the Dutch courts.
