Climate activist Greta Thunberg acquitted of case over breaking laws during oil protest | Oneindia

Climate activist Greta Thunberg was acquitted on Friday of a charge of refusing to follow a police order to leave a protest blocking the entrance to a major oil and gas industry conference in London last year.

The courtroom gallery erupted with applause as Judge John Law told Thunberg and her four co-defendants to stand and told them they were cleared of the criminal charge of breaching the Public Order Act.

The judge cited "significant deficiencies in the evidence" presented by the prosecutor.
