Half-day arrests, dog bites in Kassel
By nichtfragenweitersagen - 13.11.2003 16:12

About a dozen people were arrested by police in the night from Monday to Tuesday in a forest near Kassel and held for half a day. Police patrols that night discovered several people spending time in the forest, which was apparently not permitted, although they were far from any railway line and the Castor train was still far off, anyway. People lying on the ground were bitten by police dogs and police threatened to use firearms. Police then brought in big-time cavalry, such as flood lights, search troupes, helicopters, etc. to locate any other hidden Castor opponents ? though they found none. This is how it reads in the police report: ?In the further proceedings it was possible at around 11 pm to prevent a rail track blockade by detaining 12 persons in the Guntershausen area (south of Kassel). In close proximity to the tracks they had materials with them for chaining themselves fast.?

Taken to a detainee collection centre in Kassel, those arrested were held for more than 12 hours without food, all the women in single cells. Everyone?s id?s were noted; in at least one case one person who refused to surrender their id details was gravely maltreated.

Investigations have been launched from ?right up top? about alleged serious interference.
Shit happens. We?ll be back next time.

As the Castor convoy rolled through at night, the village of Gusborn was cut off from the outside world. Police allowed no one to leave the village.


Road blockaders in Gusborn


Police surrounded Gusborn, which lies on the Castor south route, Tuesday-Wednesday night. Several hundred people had mounted a road blockade. For several hours no one was allowed to leave the village by car. (Of course there were no public buses at this time of night. The area is also extremely lonely, so walking was out of the question.) But although temperatures were below freezing, the mood stayed good. Farmers provided plenty of straw, there was a mobile stage and good music from Radio Freies Wendland (Radio Free Wendland).
