PROTEST
AT THE GREEK EMBASSY
Saturday 28th June 2003 at 2PM
1A Holland Park, London W11
(nearest tube Holland Park - Central Line)


Last weekend during the international
mobilisations against the immigrant-bashing
EU summit in Thessaloniki, Greece, a
number of anti-capitalists, were attacked
and beaten by the police.
They also arrested  many others and we have
been hearing reports that  those arrested were
beaten in custody.
Plus there is increasing evidence that people are
being fitted up by cops on ridiculous charges
including possession of explosives!
(Along with footage of undercover cops planting
incriminating material on arrested people).

Some of those arrested received
serious injuries from the police and 9
demonstrators (including a UK activist) were
refused bail. They will remain in prison on
remand while they appeal. This process will
take around 3 months and if this appeal fails
all 9 could languish in jail for over a year
while they await their trial.
