EA

The EA is now offline. If you get post write a mail to ealeinemasch@disroot.org or ask your local Rote Hilfe organisation for support.

As the legal team (EA), we are available for you by phone during the action. We take care of those who have been arrested and, in particular, make sure that no person is forgotten at the police station. No one is left alone.

Call the EA / Legal Team

The EA can be reached by phone during the entire evacuation as well as on 1/10 (day and night).

But the EA is not active for the entire clearing season, only as soon as the clearing alarm goes off the structure will be accessible until the clearing/clearing is done and everyone is free*. If the EA is needed during the clearing season, you can notify us by email at ealeinemasch@disroot.org (PGP key on request) and it will be available on request. At the police station you have the right to a successful phone call, please use it to notify us.

You can reach us at: +49 641 201099260

Please contact EA if:

  • you witness arrests, violence or other assaults by the police.
  • you yourself have been arrested.
  • you are free again.
  • If possible, you should say something about these points to the EA when you call:
  • What is your personal ID number? (For our system, it is important that you have an ID number, even if you have personal details) If you enter your personal details, you can also tell us your name.
  • Where exactly are you being held?
  • What is the accusation of the police against you?
  • Do you need essential medication?
  • Have more people been taken into custody with you? (Please only mention names if you are absolutely sure that the other people have already revealed their identity to the police! However, we are happy to write down anonymous ID numbers of fellow prisoners.)

You should NOT do this in the phone call with the EA! say:

  • What you really did or didn’t do.
  • Your name if you haven’t told the police yet and don’t want to reveal your identity.
  • What other people were involved but are not in custody. Important: Do not make any statements and do not sign anything with the police! If you observe or are checked on other people arrests or assaults – please call us directly, then we can at least take care that no one disappears unnoticed or consider together with you what a possible procedure in the control could be. We speak German and English.

The EA is in contact with lawyers and will take care of defense, in case of a summary trial or if the police want to keep you there for a longer period of time. We will also find people who will be waiting for you in front of the Prisoner Collection Center (GeSa) and will pick you up. We make sure that no person is forgotten. Be sure to call the EA when you’re free again so we know (even if you didn’t report to us from the police station, maybe an observer reported you)!

ID Number

On the LeinemaschBLEIBT website you will find an ID number generator. There you will be shown an individual number in a box, which you can tell the EA for the leash if you are detained and want to contact the EA anonymously. You can also share the ID number with your affinity group or friends so they can ask the EA about you. So remember not only the EA phone number, but also your personal ID number (it’s best to write it on your arm). Please also keep in mind that our system can only work if all those whose number was (possibly) recorded with us during the campaign also report back by phone or signal when they are free again (after GESA or a boiler).

Info: The ID number generator generates a new number every time you reload the page, so that no numbers are assigned twice. Numbers can be generated almost infinitely. Just write down the first/best number, so you have your individual and unique ID number!

Repression

We as EA provide legal assistance and ensure that no one is left alone. We stand in solidarity! There is an account to cover the anti-repression costs, if you have any leftovers, feel free to leave something there. *We do not have the experience and capacity to provide long-term detention care, but if there is a case where this is necessary, we will organize a group to take care of you. You will not be left alone. If you receive any mail afterwards, please contact the anti-repression structure in your city/vicinity. We will still be available by email for a few months after the campaign. So you can also contact us, but we will only pass on. It makes sense to take a closer look at the legal conditions beforehand.
