In Sweden, about two dozen members of the Återställ Våtmarker (Restore Wetlands) group were convicted of sabotage for blocking highways in the capital, Stockholm. Others were held on remand for up to four weeks for taking part in protests.

Restore Wetlands is an association of people, who through peaceful resistance intend to force the Swedish government to ban peat mining and restore wetlands.
