At 1330 today following a court application by a drugs company who can't be named the website of the Stop Huntington Animal Cruelty (SHAC) campaign was shut down.

The administrators of the site were informed by their ISP that they had been served with a summons obtained in the high court and granted earlier today. This follows the report of a representive of a private military contractor being identified as having worked within an organisation that has links to the SHAC campaign. The injunction prevents naming of the individual, the information she had obtained and the arrests that resulted from that information.

SHAC is currently talking to its legal team to obtain advice.
