Shocking reports coming from copenhagen of YET MORE police brutality against those that seek justice for the planet and its inhabitants, human and non-human, as people are sprayed with pepper spray in their holding cells for apparently making noise!!

below is the actual text on indymedia denmark:

solidarity to those suffering police abuse.

Legal Team "Rusk" has made public that police repeatedly used pepper spray in the cages where jailed protestors were being held during the last days. The reason given is that some people were making noise.

In some cases the police even took the people's water out of the cages afterwards.

Furthermore, Rusk considers the detention of a whole demonstration, as it happened yesterday at the "Hit the Production" action, as completely illegal, saying that a demonstration has not to be registered officially.

Details about all of this and more information from the Legal Team in tonight's shows on indymedia cop15 radio, both in the German and in the English show, at 21h and 22h.
