We’ve been informed that the Crown Prosecution Service has “discontinued proceedings” against a local activist who was arrested back in November 2012 for allegedly chaining himself to railings outside the EcoStream store in Western Road. This means that the trial has, in effect, been abandoned. We’ve not yet been told why the case against our comrade was dropped, but will post further news as we receive it.
