FlagMajor trucking firm Seino Transportation Co. filed a theft complaint with police Friday against Greenpeace Japan, a day after the conservation group lodged a criminal complaint against 12 crew members of a Japanese whaling ship, alleging they stole whale meat from their contentious catch for the black market.
Seino says a box of cargo was taken by Greenpeace from its branch office in the city of Aomori in north-east Japan. Police have inspected Seino's office and say they will investigate the case on suspicion of theft. Seino said the package in question was one of four cardboard boxes being transported from Tokyo to Hakodate in southern Hokkaido last month.
