Today, 10th December 2008, around 20:30 bulgarian time (EET) a
solidarity protest in commemoration of the killed by a policeman 15-years old Alex Grigoropoulos took place in front of the greek embassy in Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria. Around 40 people from the Federation of the Anarchists in Bulgaria (FAB), autonomous anti-authoritarian group "AnarchoResistance", movement for resistance "23rd of September" and movement for students rights "Priziv" gathered.
Representatives from FAB and "23rd of September" read declarations to
speak out our anger with the killing of Alexandros. The activists
shouted slogans like "Solidarity between the people is our weapon against the state", "Cops, pigs, killers" and "Freedom" in bulgarian and greek and waved anarchist's flad and transparents with slogans "Enough with the killings and the police terror!", "He, who falls for freedom, does not die!". The protest ended with candles and portraits of Alex, put in front of the main entrance of the embassy.
During the protest all of the people were observed by approximately 20
policemen (who were there already, although the action was announced
only in a press-release to several newspapers and TV-stations!) and filmed by the police's cameraman (again, like in any other protest).
