news from malaga:

malaga, 31 january 02 (sorry for my english)

29th morning we were evicted by national police at 06.30 hours. At this time they were deporting a group of 23 immigrants, some of them we thought to be the group detencted from almeria. A group of 10 people tried to prevent the leaving of the police´s vans by lying down on the road, but we were fastly evicted and forced to leave the place.
At 11.30 a.m. we made a demo and a big call to the media and people. We did some differents actions (a boy hanged in a tree with a banner saying deported, and a group of 25 people stayed on the road interrupting traffic)
to allow the police attention since 2 people had chained themselves to the door of the detenction center. Minutes later the rest of the group were running to this door and we made all together a human chain. At this moment a lot of media were fortunalely there and police repression looked not to be really hard.
We were evicted without any hard wounded and we were going home peacefully, and suddenly a group of police went up to 2 campaigners (nico and kepa) to arrest them since they beated all the people that were trying to avoid the detention. They bring them inside the detenction center. At this moment the inmigrants lawyer was inside and she saw how a group of 8 or 10 police were beating brutally these two activists, especially one of them.
She was inmediately expelled from the detention center.
Nico and kepa has been arrested 24 hours. They have been accused to beat police and we are waiting the results of the justice palace. We think they are not going to have problems because we had all the time the media there and some of them accord to declare about the illegal detention. We have all of this recorded too .
There has been a really beat to the spanish policy. Some parties of the left wing have solicited declarations of the inside minister, and the dimission of the malaga and almeria delegates of the spanish government. We have received a lot of support and calls of all the state groups and people.
Curiously, the deportation of the group of almeria inmigrants was made at the same time that nico and kepa were going out of the justice palace.
So, this kind of brutal repression against fights for dignity of every people is not going to stop us. Now we are going to continue with the campaign against the detention center. We need to make a big reflexion about it... but something is almost sure.... that things went not well didn´t depend on us...

we will continue shouting,thinking and building this world we want.


LA LUCHA CONTINUA!!!!
LIBERTAD DE EXPRESION Y MANIFESTACION PARA TOD@S!!!!
NINGUNA PERSONA ES ILEGAL!!!!

( we are fine now, we forgot the physical pain when nico and kepa came out... and celebrating that we can win )
