Isabel Lucas Faces Arrest

Japanese police have issued an arrest warrant for Logie award-winning Australian actor Isabel Lucas, after her part in an anti-whaling protest last month. The former Home & Away star joined other celebrities and professional surfers to form a floating circle on surf boards offshore near the coastal village of Taiji in late October.

Lucas, along with five others including Heroes TV star Hayden Panettiere, have now been charged with “interfering with international commerce”, But Lucas played down the arrest warrants, saying they would only “embolden those risking their lives to halt the killings”. “I’sm not scared in the least about going back there (to Japan),” she said.

“In fact, now I think it would draw even more attention to the barbaric act.”
