Another death at the hands of police - Demonstration for Kebba Jobe

Kebba Jobe, a 42-year-old father of seven was killed by police on 15/5/05 around 2pm in broad daylight at Camden Lock. Yet another person dies due to police "restraints". The time is here for action. All we ask for is justice and an end to this police brutality.

There will be a demonstration on Saturday 22/05/04 at 2pm, starting from Camden Lock and going along to Kentish Town police station. All supporters welcome.

Rafah - 20 feared dead after missile is fired into peaceful demo

19-05-2004 11:43

Really Bad News
Anees called several moments after I posted that last message. Practically the entire town turned out for the demonstration. As they made they way down Sea street (the main road from the town sqare) to Tel Al Sultan an Apache helicopter opened fire on them and fired a missile into the crowd. Anees is currently trapped there while ambulances race to and from the scene. No way of knowing figures at the moment but Anees thinks maybe twenty dead. As I was speaking to Anees I could hear ambulances wailing and people screaming. I will update this post when I get more information.  http://www.rafahkid.net
