Police release protesters protesting the TNT plant The trio denies spilling oil into the environment

A group called 'Pelastetaan Noormarkku' has been protesting against the construction of a TNT explosives factory in Noormarkku, Pori. The protesters were arrested by police on Wednesday and accused of spreading oil or oil-like substances into the environment. However, the group claims that the oil was already present in the area before their arrival and may have come from machinery used earlier. The group criticizes the planned factory for increasing the risk of accidents, altering water systems, drying out forests and wetlands, and harming wildlife. They argue that the public discussion around the factory has lacked criticism. The factory, which would create approximately 70 jobs and cost around 200 million euros, received permits last week from the local council. Environmental organizations and individuals have submitted objections to the project.

Bias read (Center): The article presents both the protesters' claims and the police's accusations without taking a side. It includes perspectives from the environmental group and mentions the permits granted for the factory but does not show clear bias toward either the protesters or the authorities.
