The activists are still in prison, one of them still in hungerstrike, put with forced feeding by the authorities. The solidarity protests are still going on - lots of protests around the prisons, but also in many other parts in austria and abroad.

On June 21, 2008, one month after the arrest, some 400 people ralleyed in vienna (see call above). This demonstration also went to one of Viennas detention centers for immigrants (a prison, running by the police) and to the investigation prison, where some of the animal right activists are detained. The demonstration ended at the monument for marcus omofuma, who was killed during a forced deporation on May 1, 1999.

** Please join: 2nd of July 2008 - Day of Solidarity **

The next evaluation of the detention for the animal rights activists in Austria will take place on Friday July 4 in Wiener Neustadt. There the decision will be made as to whether the activists will remain in remand custody.

To inform the public and the media about the new evaluation and this Austrian Affair we want to spread the word for their freedom two days before, on the 2nd of July.

Please join the International Day of Solidarity and organize Demos in your City! Let's spread the word for the freedom of the 10 activists in Austria and demand an end to repression of social activism.
