Hanging for Justice in Barcelona (Spain)

Two comrades are hanged with ropes and displaying a banner since Friday morning (spanish time) and now, Monday afternoon, they are still there!


They went into Barcelona´s Trade Tower, right by the swiss consulate, with a bunch of other activists to protests for the brutality of the swiss police during the G8 summit that took place in Evian (France, but quite near switzerland). As y´all may remember during the summit the swiss police cut the rope of two activists that were hanging from a bridge -blocking a highway- and one of the activists (a brit who lives in a squat in Barcelona) felt down and is still in the hospital (it was a 20 meters fall!).



Protesters are demanding a serious investigation on the swiss police criminal action (the swiss embassy in the UK gave <a href"http://uk.indymedia.org/front.php3?article_id=71437">this answer to brit activists some days ago...).


A press conference will take place in a while, stay tunned.
