Dan was charged with "conspiracy to blackmail" Huntingdon Life Sciences and was remanded today on 30th July 2008 at Winchester Crown Court after pleading guilty due to circumstantial evidence and the possibility of a trial lasting up to six months.

He is currently being held at Christ Church Police Station due to mass overcrowding of all prisons. He will be sent to the next prison available with a spare bed, so it is unknown where he will be.

The trial for the other defendants is due to start on the 29th September 2008 at Winchester Crown Court.

If you live in Bournemouth, please help by handing in vegan food/toiletries which can help keep him going until he is taken to a prison, as they have no vegan food/toiletries in the police station and Dan hasn't eaten since 9am on Wednesday 30th July.

We will update and post bulletins as soon as we are updated on his whereabouts. Please add the Support Dan myspace to show your support.

Also visit  http://www.shac.net and  http://indymedia.org.uk/en/actions/2008/shac to learn about the campaign against the notorious animal testing lab, Huntingdon Life Sciences (HLS).

Once Dan is settled in a prison, please send him letters of support or in the mean time, leave comments of support on this myspace.
