The austrian government has demanded the release of the 25
performance artists held on trumped up charges by the forces of evil , in fascist Italy
performance artists held on trumped up charges by the forces of evil , in fascist Italy
Accounts of what happened to the Volxtheater Karawane have been circulating for some days now. Johannes Voggenhuber,
member of the euro parliment for the Green Party has visited some of the kidnapped people. He has called for the immediate release of all prisoners. The austrian president
Thomas Klestil has written to the Italian president Ciampi also demanding their release.
Johannes Voggenhuber, has been busy gathering evidence and presenting it to various authorities in Italy and austria.
He was also interviewed on Milans Radio Populare where he recounted the claims of torture and mistreatemnt meted out by
the carabinieri thugs. At some point one of the Carabinieri
demonstrated how they could beat the prisoners and not leave marks, they must be white he said . But it is stated that they waived this practise for an Australian Guy who didn't take too kindly to their nazis tactix, he had the living shit knocked out of him and was last seen laying on a sort of a 'camp bed' . seemingly unconcious. The methods of torture used against the artists were similar to those reported from Bolzanetto , no sleep, standing in very uncomfortable positions, savage beatings for no reason and generally being humiliated for 14 hours or more. The Carabinieri sang their fascist songs and chants and behaved like a bunch of low grade morons who think that they can get away with anything .
The Carabinieri's claims to have found a weapons haul, namely the groups stage props and other equipment However the austrian police have stated that the group is well known in Austria and there is plenty of video evidence which shows all the equipment being used for peacefull theatrical performances at various recent festivals.
It seems that the Carabinieri/Italian Police can make up any bullshit story they want to and it will some how be accepted by the Italian authorities. The papers and TV have been full of outrageous ficticious accounts of what happened in Genova. Take the police account of the raid on the diaz school,
they are still saying that the school was the base for dangerous rioters. They claim that the people inside put up fierce resistance and that 23 police officers were injured by volleys of stones hurled from the roof. despite countless video's which show the cops kicking in the front door of the school completely unopposed. The figure of 23 Cops injured still stands and is used in gestapo style propaganda by
Berlusconi's government.
