Gabriel Villeneuve released

Some good news, the Canadian animal rights prisoners, Garbiel Villeneuve, has been released from prison. See below for more details.



from SHAC Canada (shaccanada@riseup.net):
*please crosspost freely*
Gabriel Villeneuve was liberated yesterday after 30 days in jail. He was
liberated under cotion (1000$ deposit and 5000$ without deposit) and under
a couple conditions:
- Not allowed to communicate or attempt to communicate, by any means
whatsoever with any SHAC members.
- Not allowed to be in Quebec City district unless for court appearance or
to meet with his lawyer.
- Not allowed to participate in any sort of protest.
- Not allowed to distribute flyers in regards of any of SHAC causes.
- Not allowed to organize or plan any activities related to any SHAC causes.
The focus of the court appearance was to get Gabriel out of jail and
unfortunately, that implied that he has to follow unjust conditions.
Gabriel will go to the supreme court of Canada to try to get those
unconstitutional conditions off.
Gabriel has to go back to court April 7 to know the date of his trial as
well as the one of the three other activists implicated in the case.
Because of all the legal court conditions Gabriel cannot write anything or
give any statement at the moment, we are working with the lawyers on legal
terms to see what can be done.
Thanks to everyone who gave him support, we’ll send you news next week.
