INTERNATIONAL DAY OF SOLIDARITY / THESSALONIKI PRISONERS

Sunday 21st September

An international day of solidarity has been called for Sunday, September 21, in support of the seven prisoners arrested during the demonstrations against the European Union summit in Thessaloniki three months ago. The seven, who are facing felony charges and up to 25 years in jail, are still in two prisons in Greece, as their appeal against their bail has been refused. A new appeal was made, but it could take up to two months to be answered.

 
PLANNED SOLIDARITY ACTIONS FOR SEPTEMBER 21

Up to now, demonstrations, concerts and meetings have been called for in the following greek cities:



Thessaloniki,
Herakleion,
Patras,
Athens,
Chania,
Kavala,
Volos,
Lamia,
Komotini.


 
Please let us know details if you're planning an action so that it can be publicized beforehand, or if you prefer, so that it can be reported on after.
