"Ertzaintza" harassment in Gasteiz

Different social organizations of Gasteiz (Araba south basque country) have denounced a new case of police violence in the "Gaztetxe" (youth home) of Gasteiz. According to them, Ertzaintza (autonomic police) entered in the Gaztetxe at the night when people were cleaning it. Seven patrol cars appeared and kicked down the door.

The police frisked and beaten some of the youth. Besides, they destroyed material and requisitioned basque political prisoners photos. The "gazte asanblada" (youth assembly) have denounced that if they denounce police, police words are more important for judges. They also added that if they protest when Ertzaintza enters in the Gaztetxe, they use violence to shut up them.
