The information in this file was recently published in FREEDOM - the fortnightly anarchist journal published by FREEDOM PRESS: FREEDOM PRESS (IN ANGEL ALLEY) 84B WHITECHAPEL HIGH STREET, LONDON E1 7QX GREAT BRITAIN Do write for a sample copy or for a copy of our booklist of publications. We will be putting more of this information out so watch this spot... GRENADA - SOUTHERN SPAIN Repression follows strike action. Nine members of the Spanish CNT-AIT have been charged with various offences after their participation in the general strike of 27th January. Having avoided various suspended prison sentences, called for by the government, three of them still were kept in prison for 23 hours, after having been arrested during the strike. Accused of violent activities and violations of public order, the anarcho-syndicalists included the editor of the publication CNT, Jos Luis Garcia Rua and an English comrade whose expulsion was narrowly avoided. The regional federation of the CNT has organised a solidarity campaign. CALL FOR INTERNATIONAL SOLIDARITY EXTREMADURA After a series of actions taken by peasant groups in Extramadura there was a number of arrests. Most of these were at a demonstration but one comrade was arrested at his home, two days after the event... maybe because he was an anarchist? The legal process is moving along, most of those arrested have been freed, apart from two, one of which is our comrade, Jos Paredes. Now his lawyer is asking for money to continue working on his case and his trial is imminent. We believe that those charged will be sentenced for their opposition to the agricultural policies of the local government. This is why the collectives Paideia and Los Adelfas are calling for solidarity from anarchists and anarcho-syndicalists to help defray the costs of the legal expenses and so that our comrade should not have to pay the personal cost of a prison sentence.
