Version imprimableThe Bastille-Place d’Italie demonstration which was finally allowed, is in fact almost banned. A huge police blocked presence has blocked everywhere, preventing many demonstrators from entering the authorized route by long searches, and blocking the cars bringing the necessary material for the demonstration such as flags, stickers, leaflets. All metro stations on the route are closed. At the same time the police has surrounded the Labour Exchange at Place de la République preventing 200 people at a cross-sectoral General Assembly from joining the march.
The NPA protests against such repressive behavior that even the rightwing in government did not dare implement, and demands the immediate lifting of all obstacles blocking the inalienable right to protest in the street.
