Japanese anti-whaling blogger Junichi Sato was arrested on June 20. According to Associated Press, he was arrested for theft.
Japanese police arrested two Greenpeace activists on Friday on suspicion of stealing about 50 pounds of whale meat that the environmentalists said had been illegally siphoned by whalers from government-backed hunts.
Sato claimed widespread collusion among fishing company, academics and others to overfish.
Here’s a translation of his last post prior to the arrest, via Greenpeace.
