Anarchist flag on Argentine Embassy

12.01.2002 11:22

Eight members of the group "Those Pesky Kids" (TPK) have been charged with Criminal Trespass and were bailed to appear at Bow Street Magistrates Court on the 11th Jan, after scaling the Argentine Embassy walls and dropping the red and black Anarchist flag in a gesture that was both bold and defiant!
The occupation of the embassy was in solidarity with the insurrectionary events instigated by the majority of the Argentinean population.
They declared we wholeheartedly support the dreams and desires of the peope as they reject the right of governments and corporations to rule them."
As the protesters appeared in court it was clearn that one of their number who had refused bail due to the stringent and unrealistic conditions that were set, had been beaten by security guards during his time in custody. An outraged friend of the protester who was in court reported that "his face was swollen and bruised".
