International Demostration Freedom Imprisoned Anarchists 24 April Barcelona
29-03-2004 22:28
From the Coordinating Freedom Imprisoned Anarchists we summoned to a manifestation at international level next the 24 of April in Barcelona, to 18 h. in the Seat of the Cathedral. The logic of the system based on the exclusion, repression and the hardening of the pains cause the continuous increase of the prison population. The dissidence is more and more represaliada as we have been able to state in so many places (Barcelona, Valencia, Madrid, Salonica, Italy...) We see ourselves in the necessity to show our rejection all prison system, thus we make this call at international level to demand the freedom of lxs compañerxs anarchists encarceladxs, and by a world without prisonsJAIL DEMOLITION!
CALL: BARCELONA (Seat Cathedral 18 h.) 24 OF APRIL OF 2004
