Hmm... I'm reading Nature now, and it said that, when asked to assess the risk of a major earthquake in view of the tremors, the scientists responded by saying that the earthquake risk was clearly raised but that it was not possible to offer a detailed prediction. Then subsequently in the press conference held by the authorities, the authorities said that the minor shocks did not increase the risk of a major one.
What I just read is quite damning, but being a 3rd hand source I have my reservations about the exact facts, also because it seems to contradict what was said here. But since they're appealing (which takes ages and they're free until appeals are over, assuming they are indeed guilty after appeals) we shall have to wait and see what happens.
