Japan's government expressed disappointment at Denmark's refusal to extradite activist Paul Watson, stressing the ongoing legal issues surrounding his alleged involvement in anti-whaling incidents.
Danish Minister of Justice Peter Hummelgaard clarified that the decision not to extradite Watson was based on the case specifics, not a reflection of Denmark's view of Japan's legal system.
Watson, known for his controversial tactics against whalers and as a media figure through 'Whale Wars,' remains a figure of international interest amid calls for legal accountability.
Former harpooner Shintaro Takeda raised concerns about the risks faced by Japanese whalers, emphasizing the violent methods employed by anti-whaling activists like Sea Shepherd.
