Another activist arrested in Sterrebos, two more in the trees

That happened around 10:15 p.m. The woman was handed over to the police and arrested. According to the spokesperson for the action group, she is in jail.

As a result of the arrest, only two occupiers are left in the forest. One occupier shared a self-built hut in an old oak in the Sterrebos with the unfortunate woman, and is now left alone in the tree house. The other occupier lies in a hammock screened with plastic sheeting at the edge of the forest.

At the beginning of the action, which started on Friday, there were about 15 activists in the trees. A number of activists who tried to join the protest after Friday were arrested.


The spokesperson for the action group calls the arrest a ‘downer’. According to her, a woman had already been arrested by security in the same way. This woman also came down to relieve herself and was promptly arrested. “We will meet on Thursday to see how to proceed,” the spokesperson said.

Action group Save the Sterrebos is occupying the forest to prevent seven hectares of the Sterrebos from disappearing. Car manufacturer VDL Nedcar, the owner of the forest, wants to cut down the trees in order to build a new production hall.
