Arrest warrant for Chris Eubank re: Peace Action

Random | 17.11.2007 01:32 | Other Press | Repression | Social Struggles | London | South Coast

A judge has issued a warrant for the arrest of ex-boxer Chris Eubank after he failed to turn up to court over an unlawful protest in Whitehall.

Eubank was charged after he tried to park his seven-tonne truck outside the gates to Downing Street in May in protest at UK policy in Iraq.

I know it isn't nice to cut and paste, but he is an activist in trouble. Apparently he is abroad, and was expected to turn up in court. Just read the article.
