I read that the guy who was killed had influential parents so I think that Jock has little hope of freedom, anyway I support him.

Seriously people- is anybody up for doing some solidarity actions in their area? Next 20-25 days will be really really crucial, any pressure people can put on Bulgarian authorities would be good, demoms and pikcets outisde embassies the best.

A la izquierda de lo posible
well, thats how he ended up with 20 years sentence. However shit is hitting a fan a bit there so lets see.
Also this is a chance for people on the forum to help fellow anti-fascist and do something besides writing hundreds of posts here and there.
What can I do hundreads of mile away to help?
ermm... organise your comrades if you got some group around to do phone calling and mass protest message writing to Bulgarian authorities, including Embassy etc. in your own country? And if you are close to the Embassy oprganise protest outsie it?
http://anarchistsolidarity.wordpress...ockpalfreeman/ here at the end you got some suggestions as how to help. Time is running out..
Based on what I read, I have the feeling he will spend lots of years in jail.
I never heard of bulgarian embassies near my location but he will send e-mails to bulgaria and that.
He will certainly spend lots of time in jail if people do nothing.
Where are you from Triple A? There might be an embassy you dont know about
In the place I live there is a bulgarian embassy but I found out it is not that important, tough.He will certainly spend lots of time in jail if people do nothing.

I am not that idealistic, and I doubt that some protests of foreign people will change the bulgarian system.
Well, we are not trying to change Bulgarian system, we are trying to influence particular decision and internation protests already brought lots of heat on them, se we need to keep the pressure. We will definitely change anything if people will have such an attitude as "there is nothing that can be done". Come on, organising protest there is not a big deal, gather some friends and do it.
Any protests outisde bulgarian embassy HAS to be reported by them to central authorities.
I did not said I wouldnt do anything or that nothing can be changed, I said that I doubt that he will leave in freedoom.
well, i am trying not to hold my breath either, however on his last appeal 3 judges were discussin for about an hour whether to acquit him on the spot- that means that there is actually some hope.
Dutch ASB (Anarcho-syndicalist union to be in the Netherlands) are doing a solidarity picketline within two weeks from now. I'll post the flyer when we finish it.

last news from internet message:
Hi there everybody .
Jock had his final defence plea in his appeal on 19th of January. It means that theoretically within 30 days he should receive his verdict- Bulgarian system however is not know for its efficiency so it might take more time than that. In the meantime we definitely need last push for him!
Comrades in Moscow already organised another picket outside Bulgarian embassy and we know there is something going to take place in Holland in few days. If you have a Bulgarian Embassy or consulate in your area why not to pay them a visit with few friends and a abnner or at least go there and offcially deliver a letter of support? (it has to be noted by embassy stuff and sent to Ministry of Foreign Affairs so it carries more weight that you might think). If not that send few emails to bulgarian authorities, reminding them that Jock is not forgotten and we are watching them.
There is very handy form for sending messages to one of the bulgarian ministires here : http://www.mfa.bg/en/contact/
Free Jock website finally seems to be moving, with large update of different articles about him: www.freejock.com
