Essex Police acted as hunt stewards, assaulting and racially abusing hunt sabs at a meet of the Essex and Farmers Union Hunt in Maldon, Essex.
Hunt Sabs from London, Essex and Suffolk paid a visit to the last meet of the Essex Farmers and Union at Hill Place, Woodham Mortimer, nr Maldon, Essex, Saturday 27th March.
Saboteurs had pre- sprayed many of the surrounding woods and from the start had prevented the hunt from getting down to there business of murder.
This particular hunt have a long history of violent attacks against saboteurs (see www.huntsabs.org.uk/ ) it is also an area that has a very biased Police Force (The ex - assistant Chief Constable's wife used to hunt with The Essex Union).
During the day sabs had been ridden at by members of the hunt, but nearly all of the violence came from the Police. One sab van was detained by over 4 police vehicles, some of the sabs were then assaulted for not being passive enough to give over there details, one sab of Spanish origin was racially abused and assaulted. The driver was given a 7 day wonder.
Another incident involved 2 sabs being arrested on a footpath for breach of the peace, but after informing the Police that they were on a public footpath and that the hunt were not technically in the area the sabs were de-arrested.
A while later sabs were prevented from walking up a public footpath to meet the hunt by a line of police (the same unit that had assaulted sabs earlier in the day), again sabs were assaulted and a female sab thrown against a car. Another sab tried to film the incident but had his camera pushed away and was then given a 7 day wonder for the vehicle he was driving.
Sab vans were then escorted front and back by police vans driving at 10 miles an hour enabling the hunt to get as far away as possible.
The hunt were prevented from killing any foxes.
Get Sabbing.
