Communique: Perama Police Station Arson in Athens

17-07-2008 14:58

Report from mass-media (zougla.gr): A "red beret"-styled incendiary attack by around 20 hooded persons was realised at 5:30 in the dawn against the Police Station of Perama. The unidentified persons riding 10 motorbikes targeted the parked patrol cars outside the Police Station. The youth hurled two molotovs and a firework to provoke confusion and then threw 41 gas canisters beyond the police patrol cars and next to the police motorbikes. From the fire caused, 3 vehicles were totally wrecked, and another two seriously damaged. More than 4 motorbikes were burnt. Local residents were terrified from the loud blasts. Policemen found dozens of gas canisters near the police station. The perpetrators of the attack, on their way back, set a garbage bin on fire and set it on Irinis Avenue as a barricade, to make the police hunt after them more difficult.

Massive write down of value of assets, first half losses of £20 million, shares at half their previous high. The recommendation in the business and investment pages of The Independent was to sell!

Burying cash in the sand would be a more fruitful investment!

Carnival Against Vivisection! March details, Important Police Information

14-07-2008 21:06

As some of you will already know, the police issued a s12 and 14 to protesters last time there was a protest at Sequani which informed them that no more than 50 protesters could protest near the labs. They are going to need 1000 police to stop us if they think we aren't going to the labs this time.

Some advice for anyone who is attending the carnival.

DON'T TAKE ANYTHING FROM THE POLICE.
DON'T TALK TO THE COPS THEY AREN'T YOUR FRIENDS
FILM THEM, PHOTOGRAPH THEM, COLLECT EVIDENCE
