After more than a year of inactivity, we are a few people from Bure & around with the desire to revive the website and activities of the Anarchist Bure Cross. In the days/weeks to come, the website should be updated and translated to other languages than french. Below, a small summary of what happened around here in terms of repression since the last updates of the website.
The last “days against the prison and repression” were organized in the Maison de Résistance in Bure on 15 and 16 march 2018, about a month after the evicion of the Lejuc forest, occupied at the time since a year and a half. A few days after these anti-prison days, two friends were sentenced to prison sentences (french) – respectively 4 months with suspension and 3 months without – for stuff linked to this eviction.
In august 2018, our friend Loïc is arrested after several weeks “on the run” (in a text published on the Internet (french), he had claimed responsibility for escaping the justice system). He was targeted by an european arrest warrant linked to the Hamburg G20 counter-summit. First jailed in Nancy-Maxéville, he is extradited to Germany in october 2018. He is in preventive detention in a Hamburg jail since this date. About him, we can read news of his trial dated from december 2018 (french) and february (french) and july (french) 2019. And also poems from Loïc (french) published in august, and a text (french) that reached us in october.
In february 2019, a friend was sentenced to three months in prison without suspension (french) for “insulting” a police car.
And then in last july, at the same time as a super-quick-reoccupation of the Lejuc forest, our friend Kevin was arrested and jailed (french) for failing to respect their judicial supervision (territory ban). Their judicial supervision comes from their indictment in an investigation for “criminal association” that targets more than ten people linked with Bure since 2017. They are in preventive detention since then (they’re the only person targeted by this investigation to be in prison, the other are under judicial supervisions).
In september, the day before a demonstration in Nancy against the Cigéo project, the Nancy-Maxéville jail is attacked with paint, broken windows, smoke bombs and fireworks. A communiqué is published a few days later that claims responsibility for the action.
In march 2020, we want to organize new anti-prison days around here. An article will be published soon with more informations about that.
