How things happened this afternoon
Inside the Law school, during the march, around 50 people stayed from indymedia, the medical team and radio. Half an hour after the begining of the march people started comming back. They were drowned in tear gas they were probably random people. Imediately the kids from the medical team strated work taking care of them and their organization was very good. At the same time people were comming in the building to wash themselves, to change clothes or drink water. Generally the kids from the occupation were very careful about the building because they did not want to create dangerous situations or transform the building into a battle field. There was a lot of tension and the news were comming from everywhere, by mobiles and people arriving.
At some point and while things were quite difficult, voices and fighting was heard. People came along with a guy that was beaten up, with a black eye, along with other that were saying that he was an undercover cop. Safe, along with an escort he came in the law building and was given first aid. Additionally he did not have any documents identifying him as a police officer. He left much later from the building and people were taunting him. When he was being treated and until things calm down the door of the building was shut. While the battle was raging, there was a serious issue about if the centre would remain open or not.
After hours, when it became clear that the asylum would not be lifted, the centre opened again and the indymedia centre works normally again, after the two sites are back up. Outside things are very calm and everyone that has managed to come back is going to sleep here, but tomorrow they are preparing a text and an action of support to the arrested. People are slowly going to sleep while the legal team has a lot of work. |
