VIENNA, Austria - Austrian authorities say they are questioning 10 animal rights activists suspected of arson, sabotage and other crimes.

Investigators say six of the suspects have been placed in pretrial detention for their alleged involvement in militant animal rights groups.

Officials allege that the suspects are behind numerous arson fires and vandalism targeting food, clothing, pharmaceutical and agricultural companies.

Prosecutors say the 10 were arrested earlier this week after a monthslong investigation into radical animal rights groups.

Austrian media reported today that one of the suspects has begun a hunger strike while in custody.

Investigators say the suspects used various aliases and allegedly had links to an international network.

Throw them in jail and throw away the key.
