Greenpeace staff, volunteers and supporters are photographed during an activity highlighting the Japanese court case of Junichi Sato and Toru Suzuki, two Greenpeace activists 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. An anti-whaling stand is set up outside the Japanese embassy, in Wellington, where around 150 people had 'mug shot' style photos taken that read "co-defendant, arrest me as well I want to save the whales". The photos were presented to the Japanese Embassy.
