Legal rights

Keep track of each other. If you see a friend being arrested, call the
Solidarity group and tell them. Remember to state and last name
and the time when your friend was arrested for facilitating
Solidarity group’s work. Solidarity Group exists to help
activists who are caught by the police during demonstrations or actions
and holding open-call all week. They can help with advice and tips, a
little legal knowledge, names of sensible lawyers, support to relatives,
financial support. Have the police taken and bussed you off somewhere, call
and tell me where to put off.

If you are arrested by the police, say nothing more than name, date of birth and address
– You have the right to remain silent on all other issues. Never Admit nothing,
accept no bötesålägganden, refusing to go along with simplified service – then
you are more likely to get by. Then talk with Solidarity Group when you
released how best to put up your defenses. When released from
police station, call immediately Solidarity group and tell them that you are free.
Sign up Solidarity Group numbers with a felt pen on the arm,
so you always have access to it.

Before you go on the demonstration, be sure to form an affinity group with
people you know to be there, too. During and after the manifestation
do you keep track of each other, stirring with a group. Discuss what
Conflict level you are prepared to use, how you will be able to stay in touch
if you lose one another. On many occasions you will be required
to act independently, depending on the demonstration is output. See
to have each other’s social security number written down in a safe place.
