Six activists of the environment group Greenpeace were arrested for scaling the chimney of a thermal power plant in eastern India to highlight damage caused by pollution.
The activists scaled a 250-feet (76 metres) high smokestack of the Kolaghat plant, 90 kilometres (50 miles) west of Kolkata, capital of West Bengal state.
They were seeking to spotlight the threat to the environment from coal-fired power plants.
Gautam Gupta has more on the story.
