Four antimilitarist activists on trial in Valencia, Spain
On Thursday may 11th at 11.30 am four antimilitarist activists will be on
trial for a military train blockade in fall 2004. The public prosecutor
asks for a sentence of one year’s imprisonment, while the activist’s
lawyer pleads for acquittal. The trial has been postponed already two
times, the last one because of the absence of the witnesses (4 policemen)
for the prosecution without giving any reason.
With their nonviolent action the accused activists protested against and
wanted to call attention to the manoeuvres that Spanish military and NATO
is carrying out during the last years in the country. Their action forms
part of a continuing campaign against the military structures in general,
and in particular against the existence of NATO headquarters in Spain and
especially the one in Betera near Valencia, claiming for their conversion
to social and ecological use.
We invite you to give support by sending an email to the court where the
trial is to be held (see email address below), expressing your concern for
the trial’s outcome, defending the aims of their direct action and the
legitimacy of non-violent, civil disobedience actions.
