repressie tegen NAVO protesten Boekarest
General Kaos - 02.04.2008 11:31

Vandaag begint de jaarlijkse conferentie van de NAVO. Ze komen dit jaar bijeen in het gigantische paleis dat Chauchesku in Boekarest liet bouwen. Roemeense actiegroepen en Europese netwerken hebben opgeroepen tot protest. Daar wil de NAVO kennelijk niets van weten, en begint de repressie tegen oppositionele groepen en individuen op te voeren. Zie hieronder een verslagje in Engels. Er wordt tevens opgeroepen om solidariteitsacties te houden.


Massive Repression during the NATO Summit in Romania

One day before the start of the Nato summit in Bucharest the situation
gets worse. Hourly alternative looking people are detained by the police
for no reason. Afterwards the police construct absurd offence, for example
carrying a pocketknife amounting to possession a weapon. Every person
coming to or leaving the convergence center is in danger of getting
detained (some simply for walking to a nearby shop). The detained are
interrogated, photographed and fingerprinted in police stations, and held
for up to 24 hours.
At the Romanian border several groups of activists, as well as others,
have been denied entry into the country.

The most involved Romanian activists around the country have at this point
been visited or called by either the local police or SRI (Romanian
information service) to be warned against participating in any anti-nato
protests or to have their families intimidated.

27000 police officers, military, snipers and secret police are occupying
the city. The security alert code yellow has been announced, meaning that
all demonstrations are forbidden in the whole city amongst other
restrictive laws.

In the face of this repression the actions of the few activists present
are severely limited. Therefore we urgently need your solidarity. Please
make solidarity actions in your cities.

Op Indymedia Duitsland worden kennelijk regelmatige updates gepost. Wellicht kan iemand af en toe een samenvatting in het Nederlands maken?
 http://de.indymedia.org/2008/04/212209.shtml

Ook op Indymedia Roemenie is een begin van een timeline, maar ze schijnen daar veel problemen met Internet toegang en snelheid te hebben, daarom niet up to date:

politie-inval convergence center 
antimilitarist - 02.04.2008 13:44

Er gaat op dit moment een mailtje rond met de volgende mededeling:

The factory rented to be used like a meeting place for the anti-nato activists was attacked by Romanian riot police and from 50 people 30 were arrested ….
We saw what is happening in Bucharest on TV. Riot police don’t let journalist to go inside. In this situation we are afraid that the secret police will try to implant some “evidence”.

arrestaties 
stop NAVO! - 02.04.2008 16:09

nog twee berichtjes die in de afgelopen 2 uur rondgestuurd werden:

Bucharest police said that the people were arrested because they started a fight with the bodyguard an the owner of the factory which they rented. Those two didnt let a car to go inside because of the "inflammable materials". Its about paint for banners. Anyway the police sand there the special trained officers to search for explosives.
So we are still afraid about what they are trying to accuse our friends..

46 persons were arrested, they were severally beaten in the way to the
police stations and they were also under death treat. On guy from Iasi
(Gheorghe) was hospitalized and he was beaten even in the hospital.
Another girl ask the police to go to the hospital...Small protest was
organized in the front of the police station 11.
