Maelstrom raided again

On the 14th January there was a "rebel alliance" meeting at Maelstrom (squatted social centre, hyde park corner, leeds)followed by a play your own records session. At 4 in the morning the police forced their way in and evicted everyone, including residents. They arrested two people, one for bricking in the window of a cop car, the other for section 5: threatening words and behaviour.
the police came ostensibly cos a man we had chucked out for sexual harassment rung them to allege he'd had his wallet stolen. we feel 4 cop cars for an alleged theft in a small building seemed a bit extra.
We know the woman who put in the police car window has a fine to pay and we are going to try and raise the money to pay it. please contact us if you can help with that.if you have any more info about the man arrested, let us know that too.
the next door neighbour told us that the police had been round to see him and tried to get him to make a statement against us; which he didn't and wouldn't. we also know the police have been in the pub opposite asking people there about us and trying to solicit complaints.
this is the third time the police have visited in 3 months. the second time they threatened to break the door in and send the dogs in. we took an incident number, but it looks like the police stole that, along with donations money.
the police were pretty rough, one woman got threatened sexually (verbally) by a male cop, many of us have bruises. if you were there that night and want to make a witness statement, please come and visit us. this is obviously harassment.

FUCK SHIT UP AND DON't GET CAUGHT!
