#575 | Condition of 30-year old demonstrator attacked by police remains life-threatening and critical; emergency demonstration called for May 12th in Athens

The condition of the 30-year old demonstrator who was attacked by police during the May 11th General Strike demonstration in Athens remains life-threatening. The 30-year old has been placed in a medically induced coma. The next 48 hours will be crucial in determining his fate. He was a member of the Assembly of Resistance and Solidarity of Kipseli and Patisia, in Athens. His block, along with many others, suffered an unprovoked police attack. The beating he received was a lethal one: according to the medical reports, he was hit with an object that was not a police baton; most likely it was a fire extinguisher.

Leftist and anarchist groups have called for a demonstration against state repression for Thursday, May 12th at 6pm, at the Propylea in Athens. The call-out by the leftist groups follows:

 

To the streets, to break up the fear

The government of the IMF and the Memorandum resorts to police barbarism and promotes fascist violence in order to enforce its anti-popular agenda.

Down with the murderous policies of the PASOK government.

At the pan-workerist demonstration of May 11th hordes of police launched an unprovoked attack, injuring tens of demonstrators and pushing Y.K. to the brink of death.

(We call for)

Police out of demonstrations

Chemical tear gas to be banned

The dissolution of Riot Police (MAT) and the special police forces

The punishment of the murderous policemen

 

Us, the workers, the unemployed and the youth resist the government attack through our coordinated struggles.

Terrorism shall not stop us

Demonstration: Thursday, May 12th at 6pm, Propylea, Athens
