brian's judicial review was turned down by the high court, so his trial for breaching socpa conditions last may (before the police operation to clear most of his display) will commence at marylebone magistrates court at 10 am on tuesday. supporters welcome outside the court from 9.30

background to this can be found at  http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2006/09/350202.html

the high court decision means that brian will have to argue in the magistrates court that police conditions were unlawful. the defence has suggested that it will be calling seventeen witnesses, and if so, it is possible that the trial will be further adjourned anyway, as all parties have agreed a part-hearing would not be appropriate.

brian finds it difficult to see how justice can be done, when, as part or their middle of the night operation, the superintendent terry's henchmen removed confidential and prejudicial legal papers and evidence, which they have had time to look through.

BRIAN HAW APPEARS AT MARYLEBONE MAGISTRATES COURT TUESDAY 12TH SEPTEMBER AT 10AM - SUPPORTERS ARE VERY WELCOME FROM 9.30PM OUTSIDE, AND THE HEARING IS PUBLIC.
181 Marylebone Road London NW1 5QJ - near Marylebone Station ( nearest tubes Baker Street and Edgware Road).
