| 0 comments

On the early evening of Thursday August 31st a #noG20 arrestees solidarity demonstration took place in the center of Amsterdam.
Background:
A 21-year old person from Amsterdam has been convicted to two year and seven months in prison. He is accused of having thrown two empty beer bottles at the police after hundreds of riot police blocked and attacked the “Welcome to Hell” demonstration on the evening before the G20 summit in Hamburg last July (see here: https://vimeo.com/224524911).
There was no real evidence against the Dutch comrade. The main proof being two police testimonies that described the individual who threw the bottles as a person with dreadlocks. The 21 year old that was convicted on Monday has no dreadlocks. Another 108 people are currently still awaiting trial, including one 33 year old person from Nijmegen.
