SWISS CONSULATE TO CATALUNYA STILL OCCUPIED After more than 58 hours holding from the twelve storey building, 2 activists are still ressisting with a banner with a message of outrage and solidarity. The demands of the activists from the Swiss Consulate are: 1. The immediate release of all prisoners who remain detained and imcommuincate since the G8 summit. 2. The complete withdrawal of criminal charges against all activists present during the bridge action. 3. A transparant, independent public inquiry into the training and orders and the general policing/security policy that surrounded this G8 sunnit. This public inquiry should also contain a specific invesitigation of the police team responsible for cutting the rope that caused the fall and subsequent injuries to Martin Shaw and his fellow activists. 4. The Swiss government to sign a written statement committing to take full responsibility for the acts of its police. This commitment to culpability should include the pledge to fully compensate all injured parties present during the bridge action, and other individuals who have incurred medical or judicial costs as a result of violent repression by the apparantly immune Swiss police forces. more info and immediate action updates http://barcelona.indymedia.org

Jump To Comment: 1 2They have been hanging there a long time.
a report at 19h54 BCN time reports quite naturally that at this stage their continued presence is maltreatment.
The swiss authorities must act.
Today temperatures reached 37º.
They have been hanging from the Consulate for more than 60 hours.
Now it has been suggested that there is still much to do for Martin and the Campaign in his sake.
And that includes raising money for him.
see Bcn indymedia or IMC UK.
there are english translations on the BCN pages.
Somebody should cut the rope ... and put them out of their misery ....
PS: Don't forget to send your money to our special Swiss bank account ... all donations will be put to good use financing specially selected whacky anarchist lunatic capers ......
