Dutch Supreme Court Overturns Convictions of Eight Climate Activists

Dutch Supreme Court overturns convictions of eight climate activists

The Dutch Supreme Court has annulled the convictions of eight climate activists and sent their cases back to the Court of Appeal in The Hague. The activists had previously been found guilty of local disturbance and disrupting a parliamentary session, but no sentences were imposed, as the court determined that law enforcement had overstepped in limiting their right to demonstrate.
