News from France | 03.07.2008 10:53 | SHAC | Animal Liberation | World

Multiple arson attacks were carried out at Charles River Laboratories, in France, who supply animals to laboratories including the notorious Huntingdon Life Sciences. As of yet no group has claimed responsibility but militant animal rights groups are suspected. An office building was torched and three trucks, two hundred metres away, were completely destroyed with incendiary devices.

An office building was torched and three trucks, two hundred metres away, were completely destroyed with incendiary devices.

French Anti-Terrorism police are currently investigating the incident, the second of it's type in the same area in as many years (a similar incident happened at Techniplast, cage maker/supplier in January 2007*).

The local mayor said: "There have never been any hostile demonstrations at the site, which is relatively well hidden to avoid publicity...But for the area, it remains a company which doesn't pollute, doesn't create noise or fuss and creates employment"

"To all those who lost their freedom for that of the animals (Austrians…):

Explosive devices were used against an administrative building and against refrigerated trucks at the largest center in France for breeding animals for death under the scalpel: Charles River France - Lieu-dit Les Oncins - 69210 Saint Germain sur l'Arbresle.
Tel: 04 74 01 69 69 (RENAUD Real, DRANSARD Thierry and MOLHO-Davide Andrea)

In this concentration camp, each day untold numbers of rabbits, mice, guinea pigs, monkeys (see photographs)… are incinerated after being tortured for months or years.
Others are bred to be sold to pharmaceutical companies like Novartis, HLS, Sanofi…
This activity of barbaric torture is profitable, and money motivates this system!

We have not finished with you… The cause is right and nothing can stop the ALF: neither your millions, or repression…

Only you can choose to put a permanent stop to this massacre. Think well Real (with your asshole assassin friends Thierry and David-Andrea) because your decision will be heavy with consequences.

Let us be clear: we are concerned with the whole of the vivisection industry.

ALF"
