Death Threat Investigated? 1. júní 2006 14:50 Protestors carry the banner down Laugavegur Minister of Industry Valgerður Sverrisdóttir, writing on her home page, said that she has filed charges against environmentalist group Íslandsvinir (Friends of Iceland), believing that they have threatened her life. The group held a march on Laugavegur bearing a banner that read, "Drekkjum Valgerði en ekki Íslandi" ("Drown Valgerður, not Iceland), a reference to the flooding that will occur once the Kárahnjúkar dam project, which Sverrisdóttir has supported, is complete. Writing on her website, Sverrisdóttir criticised the media for giving attention to the protestors, implied that the Leftist-Green Party were working with the protestors, and said she had filed a formal charge with police to investigate the matter. Reykjavík chief of police Geir Jón Þórisson told reporters that it's a serious matter, and that the threat needs to be investigated. Sverrisdóttir concludes her article saying, "I've been told that last Saturday's protest was the beginning of an operation that's to last all summer. I ask myself what we can expect if this is just the beginning." Police officials said they had not yet decided to investigate the matter, nor would they say if they considered it likely or not that they would. A lawyer did say, however, that arrests could be made. - PFN News News in English Mest lesið „Málinu verður ekki lokað fyrr en einhver axlar raunverulega ábyrgð“ Innlent Rukkaði konuna fyrir heimferðina eftir að hafa nauðgað henni Innlent Virginia Giuffre er látin Erlent Þarf lítið til svo hægt yrði að hækka hámarkshraða í 120 Innlent Myndir: Ráðamenn heims fylgja Frans páfa til hinstu hvílu Erlent Hittust í fyrsta sinn eftir að upp úr sauð Erlent Aukið eftirlit til muna eftir brot bílstjórans gegn konunni Innlent „Ég hef aldrei séð þetta svona svakalegt“ Innlent Segir Pútin ekki vilja enda stríðið Erlent Sex ára gamalt hús í viðgerð: Ekki við flötu þökin að sakast Innlent
