Authorities raided Greenpeace's Sydney offices yesterday, seizing evidence relating to last week's destruction of a genetically-modified wheat experiment at a CSIRO farm in Canberra.
Greenpeace activists scaled a fence at CSIRO's Ginninderra Experiment Station and destroyed $300,000 worth of genetically modified wheat last Thursday.

The incident sparked an investigation by ACT Policing, and officers spent about two hours yesterday searching Greenpeace Pacific's Sydney offices for evidence.

Equipment and property relating to the incident were seized and police will now forensically analyse the items.

Greenpeace staff were fully cooperative with the search and the organisation's Laura Kelly said the scrutiny was welcome.
