V in custody!

SoliAachen

The day before yesterday, a comrade from the environment of the campaign against animal factories was arrested by the police during an identity check in the Hambach Forest and is now in custody. The allegation is fraudulently obtaining of benefits.

He is currently being held in prison in Aachen and moved the earliest on Wednesday into the prison of Brunswick.

As soon as we have more relevant information, we will inform you.

He certainly is looking forward to post. If you want to write to him, send an email to kampagne-gegen-tierfabrikenⒶriseupDÖTnet. They will take care of the direct delivery of the mail.

Although his detention was not justified by an action in connection with the Hambach Forest, we will not overlook this act of state repression against one of us! Prison is not the solution but part of the problem!

In order to stay up to date on the case, and to learn more on the important work of the campaign against animal factories, go to:

Hambach Forest, Germany: RWE security guards run over activists as resistance intensifies

The_Mine-800x533

Yesterday (21.01.2016) RWE security guards hit activists with a car as the latter were defending the ancient forest against logging operations (see video below). Two activists were kidnapped. One was successfully de-arrested, the other, Fledermaus, was beaten and handed over to the police, accused of assault, and will likely stay imprisoned in Aachen for the next 3-4 weeks at least. The arrestee was not given medical treatment and is suffering from severe back pain, whilst not revealing his identity to the authorities.

Defend the Hambach Forest!

action

A new year has begun, but the grubbing season is not over yet, alas! Until the end of February, RWE is allowed to deforest, thanks to loyal politicians! And their plans lead them also in “our” part of the forest! Two pumping stations and a test drill station are to be built in places where anyone who ever visited the Hambach Forest, certainly went there.

In this time every thinking mind is needed, every energetic hand and every burning heart, to defend the forest effectively in manifold ways!

If you consider visiting (again) the occupations for some time, January and February is the right time! Thanks to climate change (whether human-made or not), it is not too cold here. In addition, the fight for the forest will make us sweat, but not only us! It is of utmost importance that all who wish that the forest remains, come here in these last two months of the deforesting season!

We will meet on the barricades!

This morning, a group of about 10 secus and at least 50 cops invaded the forest area which is controlled by us. They hang about now near the Pizza platform, and destroyed there on the way a tripod, which was not occupied today. In addition, they cleared barricades and took pictures.

On the night of December 31st we carried out 3 acts of arson and sabotage against the open cast lignite mine operated by RWE at Hambacher Forest.

We set up homemade stingers on the road used by the mine security forces to harass and distract them whilst we set fire to various bundles of cables and some wiring boxes by the side of the train tracks which are used to transport brown coal from the mine to nearby power stations. Halting the trains for some time.
