Solidarity to the detainees
By G8 IS THE PROBLEM, NOT THE SOLUTION 15/07/2008 At 23:39

The global action day in solidarity to the resistence anti-G8 took place on the last July 12th, in Japan.

On July 5th, in Sapporo, 3 manifestants were detained and accused of ?violating the traffic laws and special orders to manifestations in Sapporo? and also of ?obstructing the police?s work?. One of the detainees is an Indymedia activist.

Ativistas internacionais que participaram nos protestos disseram que "o sistema criminoso judiciário Japonês lhe permite manter presas pessoas por 23 dias sem acusação. Aliás, o sistema legal Japonês impõe punição coletiva; e os organizadores podem ser punidos pelas ações dos outros". International activists who have participated in the protests told that ?the Japanese criminal judiciary system allows to keep detainees for 23 days without charges. Besides, the legal system in Japan imposes colective punishment, and that means that the organizers can be punished for the actions of others activists?.

The call transmitted by Indymedia Japan says that the homeless people of Sapporo and activists from Osaka were detained: ?We?ve reported the police?s repression against the manifestation and the homeless activists, and the request of immediate freedom for all of them?. On July 12th, simultaneously protest actions happened at 3pm in Sapporo, Tokyo, Osaka, etc., against the ?police?s capitalism?.
