Charges Dropped Against Protestors 22. júní 2006 12:54 Íslandsvinir mótmæla Mótmæli Mótmælaganga Hlemmur Laugarvegur Earlier this month, Minister of Foreign Affairs Valgerður Sverrisdóttir filed charges against a group of protestors who marched carrying a banner that read: "Drown Valgerður Not Iceland," a reference to the flooding that will occur when the Kárahnjúkar dam project - which Sverrisdóttir has strongly supported - is complete. Sverrisdóttir took this as a threat against her life, but the case was investigated and subsequently dropped by Reykjavík police, who apparently saw no reason to believe Sverrisdóttir's life was threatened. While Sverrisdóttir will not comment on the matter, she did indicate that it could be possible for her to take the case to the state attorney's office. - pfn News News in English Mest lesið Játaði fjárdrátt og endurgreiðir samkvæmt samkomulagi Innlent Hommar mega enn ekki gefa blóð Innlent Ísraelsmenn hafi gengist við skilyrðum vopnahlés Erlent Tekjur af bjórsölu orðnar meiri en af miðasölu Innlent Matargjöfum Fjölskylduhjálpar hætt: „Stingur okkur í hjartastað“ Innlent Umræðum haldið áfram eftir langan fund þingflokksformanna Innlent Magnús Þór lést við strandveiðar Innlent Kviðdómur komst að niðurstöðu í fjórum fimm ákæruliða Diddy Erlent Hvammsvirkjun bíður dóms Hæstaréttar Innlent Andlát í Garðabæ: Úrskurðuð í gæsluvarðhald umfram hámarkslengd Innlent
