Activists in France have vowed to stay mobilised behind Canadian-American environmental activist Paul Watson after a Greenland court ruled Wednesday to keep him in custody. The marine conservationist will remain detained pending a decision on his extradition to Japan, where he is wanted over a clash with whalers.
A court in Nuuk ruled on Wednesday that Watson must remain in detention in Greenland until 2 October, while Denmark’s justice ministry considers Japan's request for his extradition.
