Animal rights campaigners guilty
Updated on 23 December 2008
Four animal rights extremists face up to 14 years behind bars after being found guilty of blackmail.
Their relentless intimidation included hoax bombs, threatening graffiti and telephone calls. There were even claims that company managers were paedophiles.
The blackmail only stopped when the companies agreed to stop working with Huntingdon Life Sciences.
