On a freezing January morming Joanna Wilson, Lotta Kronlid,
Andrea Needham and Angie Zelter cut through the perimeter 
fence at British Aerospace at Warton in Lancashire in the north 
of England and disarmed a Hawk attack aircraft which was to 
be delivered to Indonesia the next day.

This case has wide implications for the international arms trade 
as the women caused over 2,000,000 pounds damage and 
delivery was cancelled.

Today they were cleared of the charges of criminal damage. 

The Hawk was one of twenty four ordered by a regime which, 
according to a welter of documentation, has extinguished more 
than a third of the population of East Timor.

The Music Industry Human Rights Association applauds the 
courage of these four brave women. 

Under the Constitution of the United Nations, a somewhat 
limited document at the best of times. Indonesian genocide 
in East Timor is the greatest crime of the second half of the 
20th Century.

creators rights in a cultural market monopolised by the 
recording  / publishing Grand Cartel. Mihra's roots are in 
music and anti-racism and was first in line in calling for a 
sports boycott of Burma for the Sydney 2000 Olympic 
Games.
