More than 30 people braved the rain on Friday morning, to show their support at Glasgow Sheriff<br />Court, for one of the three people arrested during the resistance to the immigration raid on Kenmure<br />Street in Glasgow last year.<br />Like thousands of others, the Kenmure Street 3 were allegedly resisting the detention of two men<br />who have settled in Scotland and made it their home. Just these three are now facing a distressing<br />court process when it looked as though hundreds acted in a way that could have led to their arrest<br />that day.<br />As one protestor stated “The police want you to believe that they were somehow there to facilitate<br />peaceful protest last May. My view, having been there, is very clearly that they were not. They were<br />there to enable the kidnapping of two men by the racist Home Office. I feel that Police Scotland and<br />Home Office were angry and embarrassed that we successfully stood in solidarity with our friends<br />and neighbours and want to make a face-saving example of these three people.”<br />Today’s case was adjourned until a date in December. Two other defendants will appear on the 17th &<br />18th October. Their defence team are still wishing to speak to witnesses and anyone who has footage<br />of the arrests. They can be contacted at kenmurestreet3@gmail.com .
