Japan demands Denmark extradite Sea Shepherd founder Paul Watson over whale hunting clash

The Japanese government expects the Danish government to “make appropriate decisions based on the rule of law” and hand over Paul Watson, the anti-whaling activist and founder of the Sea Shepherd environmental group, for trial in Tokyo.

If convicted, Watson faces up to 15 years in prison.

However, Sea Shepherd denies these claims, stating the “bombs” thrown were merely rancid butter to hamper the whalers’ efforts to cut up their catch.
