Freedom to Protest Court Case

On Monday 21st of July a campaigner arrested at one of the weekly demos for using a sound system will be appealing his conviction. The police prosecuted him under a council byelaw intended for use against noisy street vendors. The use of council byelaws to further criminalise dissent is another tactic used by Sussex police to stifle the right to protest.

Come and support at the court - Watch Indymedia to find out which court (Lewes, Hove or Brighton) the case will be in
