On May 21, 2008, 10 people were arrested after police raids on the homes and offices of animal rights activists all over Austria. Nine of the ten activists are still in jail, their pre-trial detention being justified with the dubious charge of having formed a "Criminal Organization," under laws meant to fight the mafia. Despite immense surveillance the police and prosecution could not tie specific people with specific acts and therefore are attempting to criminalize the entire animal rights scene. This is not only an attack against animal rights activism but all political activism in Austria. Come here the latest information and some analysis from legal support and find out how you could show solidarity with those targeted!
Solidarity is a weapon! Their repression will never get us down!
