Two protestors are yet to be charged by police after boarding an oil rig as it travelled past Marlborough Sounds.

The activists from the movement Extinction Rebellion Otautahi boarded the vessel which was on its way to Taranaki, and had to be flown off by OMV which owns the rig.

Siana Fitzjohn was one of the pair who boarded the rig.

She speaks to Susie Ferguson.
