Press release regarding the 'Atos Two' case being "discontinued":

Now more than ever!

We are glad to announce that the case against the ‘Atos Two' is being ‘discontinued', i.e. dropped.

However, it is now more than ever necessary to continue the protests against Atos, to defy any attempts of police repression and to stand with those whose actions are being criminalised.
