GABRIEL VILLENEUVE LIBERATION

Gabriel Villeneuve was released last Thursday after spending unjustly 1 month in jail regarding a SHAC protest in Montreal.
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.
