More than £1.2 million of damage was caused when three women and a man went on a wrecking spree at a mid Wales factory and unfurled a “Palestine” banner, a jury heard.
Caernarfon Crown Court, where the trial is being heard
Police cordoned off roads near the factory, with jurors hearing how there had been the potential for the creation of cyanide should chlorine become mixed with other chemicals at the site due to the nature of the work at the factory. Ruth Hogg, 39, of Stanley Road, Aberystwyth, denies her behaviour was unlawful. She is charged with conspiring to damage property on December 9 with Susan Bagshaw, 65, of Clawdd Helyg, Commins Coch, Morwenna Grey, 41, of Penrallt Street, Machynlleth, and Tristan Dixon, 34, of Huddersfield, and is on trial alone.
Counsel described how workers had been drinking coffee in the canteen when they heard glass smashing. Reception windows had been broken and Bagshaw and Grey were climbing inside the building.
