Jump To Comment: 1Call for support for political prisoners-vegetarians in Russia
On the eve of holding summit G8 in Saint-Petersburg a wave of
repressions
from authorities swept over Russia. Activists were compelled to refuse
to
go St. Petersburg, they were took off the trains and arrested for
trumped-up charges (abusing the police, urinating not in prescribed
place,
crossing the road not on pedestrian crossing etc.) Some of those who
reached St. Petersburg found themselves in jail cells. By now it is
known
that 10 people from Russia, Germany, Switzerland and Holland are
detained
for 10 and more days. Some of them are vegetarians. We make them parcels
with vegan food everyday. Unfortunately, they didn't allow us to do it
today, referring to lack of time. As during the summit the amount of
arrested will probably increase a lot, it is necessary for the
authorities
to keep the rights of detained.Vegetarians/Vegans should at least be given access to food!
Support activists and demand from authorities to keep the rights of
arrested. Below are contacts of institutions of authorities, the determination of these issues is under their juristiction
