Sheriff Officer issues eviction notice

06.07.2009 14:08

The Camp was visited by a Sheriff Officer today who issued occupiers with a notice declaring that Scottish Coal and Douglas & Angus Estates have incurred substantial financial losses becuase of the occupation, and that if occupiers do not leave by 10:00am tomorrow (Tuesday 7th) morning they will be removed by force.

There is no indication as to when the eviction will begin, but the camp is preparing for it to start tomorrow, so we are calling for as many people as possible to come to the camp to defend it against any attempt by court bailiffs or police to evict the site!

Please join us, see  http://mainshill.noflag.org.uk/ for directions
