Tension and confrontation in Pisa

November 26, 2008

On Tuesday, 25 November at the university of Pisa, the rector and his administrative board approved the budget for 2009. During the decision making the university was militarized.

The budget was criticized by students and precarians of the university, because it adjusts to the law 133 without any resistance.

People wanted to intervene in the discussion and protested outside the administration building. Digos (the political police) and regular cops clashed with students. A few students got injured.

"Some accuse us of violence, but we are convinced that the only violence today was done by those who decided to approve the budget, avoiding any public debate and hiding behind the forces of order."

This info is from the Uniriot website once again.
