2. You use the word 'trees'. As far I can see there was only 1 tree destroyed.

If you care to look at the article, he was walking off with the "evidence" of one tree, but he had chopped down branches of some others; ergo 'trees' .... Those are both offences in the UK, for trees with preservation orders.

I care less for his "guilt" or "innocence" and more about his (undenied?) capitalisation on the state of affairs.

...admitted he had cut down the oak-tree in order to sell the wood, saying “I made a mistake.”

A case of one law at home, and sod the natives, methinks!

You missed this:

[...] admitted he had cut down the oak-tree in order to sell the wood, saying “I made a mistake.”

.... Happy to capitalise, at the least, wouldn't you say?

Hhhmmm .... why are you "protecting" this man?

Whoever he was, British, Cypriot, or any other nationality, he should also be charged with attempted theft (or theft if he actually succeeded in taking the stuff).
