G8 Paulista: tortura na 4a DP

Sets of ten of protesters against the G8 who were at the Av.Paulista during the latter afternoon today, are now arrested at the 4a Police Department of Sao Paulo, Marques de Paranagua st, crossing the Augusta st, being tortured and forced to sign notes that with fake information to blame them for what is in there, on those notes they are even presenting 'white weapons'[1] as if they belong to the protesters.

Many people have been released with serious wounds and bleeding a lot with their self stem down not wanting to talk about the tortured they suffered.

Not all the media can have access to the place, being forced to be outside of the police station.

During the act, the protesters heard the radio of a police officer where they were receiving orders to take their identification (from their uniforms) off so they could abuse and commit this atrocities. The protesters are inside the police station still having their testimony being taken by the cops.

Instead of "white weapons" (probably translated from armas blancas) the term mêlée weapons or cold weapons should be used.

I like to report that we have in Brazil another actions against G8.
In Porto Alegre, located in the south of the country, the car of the german consul was
totaly broken and messed up in 6 of june. Also in that day around 100 activists take the downtown streets in a very beatiful and unspected demonstration. Passing trough crowned areas, performing teatrical scenes, shouting against the windows of the Safra´s Bank, the Mcdonalds and many others targets...we set free some of our dreams.
We also have demonstrations in Rio de Janeiro and in Curitiba.

sorry! my english is very bad!

Local Action, Global Justice. ((A))//((E)) keep fighting.
we are winning...we are everywhere!
