All climate activists who were detained after protests at a peat bog outside Värnamo have now been released, according to the Jönköping district court.
16 people were arrested for serious illegal trespass and serious damage after the actions in mid-July.
But 11 were released last week, and the rest in recent days, the group Restore Wetlands says. Suspicions of crime remain, however, reports SVT Nyheter Jönköping.
Among other things, the activists are said to have filled in the ditches, which were previously dug during the extraction of peat.
