EDMONTON - Anti-oilpatch activist Wiebo Ludwig says there are innocent explanations for articles police seized from his farm in northwestern Alberta.

The 68-year-old says some of the terrorism books found were gifts, the chemistry texts were for home schooling and the marijuana was for his pregnant goats.

The items were seized when Ludwig was arrested two months ago on suspicion he had a role in pipeline bombings across the boundary in British Columbia.

Ludwig was released after the Crown prosecutor said there wasn't enough evidence to lay a charge.

Ludwig, who spent time in prison for oilpatch vandalism, has for years spoken against sour gas wells, which he says have poisoned his animals and caused stillborn babies in his family.

He says police have no case against him and are trying to make him look guilty.




I don't know his case, but I see nothing wrong with some grass or books.
