advice on being approached by police to negotiate PDF Print E-mail
Sunday, 05 June 2005
As we were finishing our recent guidance on what to do if approached by the police, it came to our attention that a number of police forces, including Sergeant Stephen French of Lothian & Borders Police (the force covering Edinburgh) has contacted various individuals to request that they negotiate with them regarding protests in Edinburgh as part of the mobilisation against the G8 Summit. Though much of what we wrote previously applies here, there are interesting implications to these emails, of which more later, and we offer the following advice to anyone who receives such unwelcome contact.

Guide to being approached by the police PDF Print E-mail
Tuesday, 31 May 2005
In the run up to the G8 Summit there will be considerable interest from the UK government in those mobilizing around it. Some of this will involve visits to activists by the police, either seeking information or simply to intimidate. Being prepared for such visits and knowing ones rights allows us to be empowered to deal with them. The following article lets you know what your rights are and what you should do if you get such an unwelcome visit.

For more advice please email the G8 Legal Support Group at g8legalsupport@riseup.net
