R v Saibene

R v Saibene and others was a legal case tried in England, in which seven members of the "Smash EDO" campaign were acquitted of conspiring to cause criminal damage at the premises of EDO MBM Technology Ltd. On 16/17 January 2009, Smash EDO campaign activists broke into the EDO MBM building in Moulsecoomb and damaged equipment worth around £200,000. The activists were cleared by the jury who accepted their defence that they were acting with lawful excuse by preventing Israeli war crimes during the 2009 Gaza War.
==Background==
EDO MBM Technology Ltd is a unit of ITT Integrated Structures and was previously owned by EDO Corporation. It has an armaments factory on Home Farm Industrial Estate, Moulsecoomb, Brighton and Hove. There have been numerous protests and direct actions since 2004 voicing the opinion that the corporation should close or convert its factory to civilian use. Protest actions have included road blockades, rooftop occupations, attempted weapons inspections, and three peace camps set up in woodland next to the factory. There have also been several marches through Brighton city centre involving hundreds of protesters. In the process several arrests have been made by Sussex Police, mostly under public order legislation. The ongoing campaign of protest, civil disobedience and non-violent direct action against EDO in Brighton, began in 2004 and came to be known as the "Smash EDO Campaign".
The Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court brought into UK domestic law by the ICC Act, makes it an offence for UK citizens and residents to act in complicity in war crimes that take place anywhere in the world. In nearly all criminal trials, protesters against EDO MBM have argued that the company is acting unlawfully by assisting war crimes committed by the UK and US forces in Iraq and the Israeli forces in the West Bank and Gaza. Magistrates in Brighton have generally refused to acknowledge the argument, but demonstrators have frequently been acquitted.
In March 2008 a feature length documentary, ''On the Verge'', about the Smash EDO campaign was released.
