"Rigaer 94" Fights Back
Slogans Sprayed

Yesterday night unknown persons spray-painted the fronts of houses and demolished a car in Friedrichshain. As the police say, these acts are linked to the living and cultural project "Rigaer 94". Houses in Rigaer, Liebig and Scharnweber streets were painted with about 20 slogans, for example "Scheiß Deutschland" (shit germany) and "Rigaer fight back".

Also in Rigaerstraße the Mercedes of Suitbert B., who bought number 94 seven years ago, was damaged. The inhabitants, ex-squatters, have cheap rent contracts since the legalisation. Several times B. tried to evict the houses through the courts, but was only successfull in some cases. At every partial eviction there havge been massive police operations. Right now "Rigaer 94" has a cult status within the scene, similar to the house project "Köpi" in Köpenicker Straße in Berlin/Mitte or the project "York59" in Kreuzberg.
