Today seven animal rights activists appeared in court, in Sweden.International Action needed
What we need to do is show them that by arresting and imprisoning fellow
activists they have stirred up a hornet's nest. We need AR groups across
the world to do demos, make phone calls and send emails to customers and
suppliers of Huntingdon Life Sciences especially during the week of
Sweden 7 Action week 26-30th September. We will not stand idly by whilst
they keep our friends and colleagues in solitary confinement so please
organise yourselves and your groups and mobilise in support of the
Sweden 7. JUST DO IT!
All
seven
were arrested on the 15th of September 2005 during three SHAC protests
in
Gothenburg and Malmö. One of the companies targeted by the SHAC
protests
was the infamous Genetic Modification company Bayer (the same company
who
wrongly and falsely who accused British ELP volunteers of being part of
the
ELF).
Following their appearance in court today all seven activists have been
remanded into custody. Five of the prisoners are Swedish, the other two
are
British. All welcome letters of support and therefore please send
urgent
