With the trial due to start at the end of June, it’s time for last ditch efforts to make sure we have enough money to support people.

The upcoming trial cannot be taken lightly, fiunds will be needed for legal expenses. We will not forget, we will not shut up, let’s stand together with all who dare to take on an unjust system.

The hearing for the 3 people left begins on June 30, 2009. There’ll be 3 trials.

First up is the case of an activist from Melbourne on ‘riot’ charges, allegedly related to the Saturday street protests. This is set to start on Tuesday June 30.

Next is the trial of 2 Sydney activists on charges of ‘aggravated burglary.’ These (serious) charges relate to brief occupations of a defence force recruitment centre and Tenix, a military contractor, which involved nothing more than red glitter & water pistols. This case is due to start on Monday July 13.

When this is over one of the Sydney defendants faces a second trial for ‘assault police’ charges from the Saturday demo.
