A. CALL FOR WITNESS:
We are looking for witnesses who were present at the Congolese protest on 6 December 2012 (and any other protests in December 2011 and January 2012) at Whitehall/Downing Street to come forward ASAP. We have a few trials scheduled and the earliest trial starts next week so it would be really good if we could start speaking to witnesses now. I am happy to correspond by phone or email.
