Help out a MayDay Arrestee

category national | summit mobilisations | press release author Friday May 14, 2004 19:32author by Fergus Robson - --------------author email fergusrobson at hotmail dot comauthor phone 087 9376872 Report this post to the editors

I am one of the MayDay arrestees,I am in need of video or photographic evidence concerning my arrest.

I was one of the three people sitting on the road to the left of the water cannon and directly in front of the riot police.I was batonned and kicked,and arrested without warning or being informed of reasons for my arrest. I was wearing a lightish blue shirt with white flowers and beige pants, i have blond hair. video/photos /witness accounts of :my arrest,my attempt to stop someone from hitting a guard(usually not very sensible or productive dont you agree?), my helping another injured protestor to safety when surrounded by riot police and anything else thatmay be considered useful in my defense would be greatly appreciated.
This is our chance to make utter arses of the pigs as not once did i occasion a breach of the peace,engage in abusive, violent or reckless behaviour and i did not recieve a specific order to remove my person. With the evidence that ia am sure exists ,somewhere,we can turn this into a major publicity victory ,i can be contacted on 087 9376872, or at fergusrobson@hotmail.com or robsonf@tcd.ie,
I am also a veteran of nearly all of last years shannon protests and used to use indymedia frequently under the name ---free thinker----
please help its not just for me its for all of us

''the only way to live,on this planet, at this moment, with any human dignity,is to struggle''
regards
Fergus
