Four people have been arrested while protesting against logging in a southern Tasmanian forest. About 20 protesters attempted to stop logging of an old-growth forest in the Little Denison Valley, 35km west of Huonville, south-west of Hobart. A spokesman for the Huon Valley Environment Centre, Warrick Jordan, said those arrested had been unfairly threatened but police say they had violently resisted.
