Our Japanese activists Junichi Sato and Toru Suzuki were charged with theft and trespass after they exposed a major scandal around the embezzlement of whale meat from the Japanese government-sponsored Southern Ocean whaling program.

They were released on bail on July 14th. A big "Thank You!" to the more than 250,000 people worldwide who took action on their behalf!

The fight is not over, however, as the investigation into Japan's illegal whaling program was dropped the same day the activists were charged. And, of course, Junichi and Toru must still have their day in court.
