Announcement by the personnel of the Red Cross Hospital in Athens, were the injured demonstrators appealed
Athens, 9th of March 2007

We denounce the unforeseen brutality and harshness of the police attacks against students, teachers, workers and youth during the protest march at 8th of March. The largest march of the last years, with more than 35,000 demonstrators participating, was ruined by the police and the government. The future scientists are shown as criminals by the government and the media, in a country where it is known that the democratic rights were won by these very struggles of the students. This is how, those who force people to get on the streets, ask for abbetors within the common sense, in order to cover their crime.
While our Hospital was in duty, we were all witnesses of this tragic and bloody attack, as more than 30 injured people came along as urgent incidents, wounded on the neck and the head. The kind of the wounds and the severeness of the contusions they had had, proves that it has been a planned murdering attack against anyone who fights for their rights, for public and free education.
People under medical treatment are still in Hospital, while seven wounded detainees were brought several hours later than they should have, in the early hours, and were moved back to the Police Headquarters in secrecy. We worry for the health state of these injured detainees. We worry for the suppression of every march. What will be the future of any reaction of ours for the lacks in the health system? should we expect a new walloping upon the uprising of the Hospitals?
We worry, we resist, we struggle. The struggle is not ending now. Against the violence of the power, we insist on pretend to our rights.
On the side of the student, the worker, every struggling person.
administrative committee of the
Union of Employees in the RED CROSS

  • Much worst is what you see inside the parliament my friend. What kind of people...how rich they are...how they get rich... what they do to lows and constitution...and human rights... and enviroment. Really stings...

  • Dont say nonses. This 00.31 is the legal move by protesters because the illegal blocking of the main street by police. Thats all. The govermental lie about etrance to parliament is very old and chip propaganda. None cares to enter in this building because people wants to remain healthy and clean.

  • Xafiedes, roufianoi, fasistes, nazides san ton parapanw apagorevetai na emplekontai sta eswterika xenwn kratwn kai na dinoun odigies vias, exodosis politwn kai dialisis ekpaideutikou sistimatos pou afora ta eswterika tis xwras kai kanenan allo.

  • Even 3 clips together, cannot express well enough the violence and the chemicals that innocent students faced, in legal demonstration at the center of Athens by this government.

  • I'm well aware of the insanity of these anarchists. However, I'm against this infringment of their right to protest. I'm for free speech for all, including my enemies.
