Medics’ XR protest caused almost £200,000 of damage to bank, court told

Four doctors and two nurses on trial over action that damaged windows at JP Morgan's European HQ in London

Four doctors and two nurses caused nearly 200,000 of damage in a hammer attack on the London offices of JP Morgan, a court has heard.

In a protest over its continued financing of the oil and gas industry, the group went to the investment bank's European headquarters and used lump hammers and chisels emblazoned with the words care" and love" to break almost 34 sq metres of plate glass.
