British Greenpeace detainees leave prison on bail

Alex Harris is the latest of three Britons to be freed on bail after two months in prison since being arrested by Russian authorities during a Greenpeace protest in the Arctic.

Alex, along with Anthony Perrett, 32 and Kieron Bryan, 29, were part of a group being held after protesting at an offshore oil rig owned by the Russian company Gazprom.

Greenpeace said the protesters have gone to an undisclosed location in St Petersburg and are with fellow campaigners and friends.

Daniel Sandford reports from St Petersburg.
