as protests go on
Cost of action yet to be feltPRICE TO PAY
Peter Mickelburough andMark Buttler
REMOVING Occupy Mel-bourne protesters from CitySquare cost about $150,000in public money.
Businesslossesduringtheweek-long protest peaked y es terd ay when p art of S w a n s t o n S t c l o s e d a spolice moved in.
‘‘The disruption to busi-nesses is likely to have costmany thousands of dollars,’’ V i c t o r i a n E m p l o y e r s ’Chamber of Commerce and
Industry chief economistSteven Wotjtkiw said.
A C i t y o f M e l b o u r n espokeswoman said payingforsecurity, temporaryfenc-ing and cleaning up theprotest camp would costmore than $20,000.
The operation to break theprotest camp cost more than
$120,000, includingthe wagesof police involved.
But the biggest cost couldbe yet to emerge — possiblepayouts to protesters whowere injured in the uglyconfrontation.
A former top Victorian riotpoliceman said the cost tot h e c o m m u n i t y m i g h tballoon if protesters decidedto launch legal action againstthe force.
R etired ins p ec tor Jeff Mawkes said Victoria Policehada history of payingout to
protesters who had sufferedeven the most minor injuries
under the belief that it wasbetter to write cheques thanbe dragged through protrac-ted civil battles.
‘‘The expense will comelater. Invariably, someonewill claim they were injuredand they’ll sue,’’ Mr Mawkessaid.
In 2007, the State Govern-ment and Victoria Policepaid $700,000 to protesterswho clashed with police inthe World Economic Forum
riots outside Crown casino inSeptember 2000.

Police defend use
of tough tacticsFORCIBLE REMOVAL
Peter Mickelburoughand Amelia Harris
POLICE have vowed not totake a backward step asprotesters promised moredisruption today and policewere forced to defend usingstrong-arm tactics — in-cluding controversial pres-sure point tactics — to re-move demonstrators fromCity Square yesterday.
Shortly after the violentconfrontation, protesterstweetedplans to storm Flin-ders St station at midday asraceday crowds headed tothe Cox Plate.
They also plan to go toFederation Square andhavethreatened theQueen’svisitnext week.
Police, who yesterday ar-rested 95 protesters, saythey are ready.
‘ ‘ W e ’ v e g o t r e s o u rc e savailable to continue todeal with any protest or in-cident,’’ Assistant Com-m i s s i o n e r S t e p h e nFontana said.
He defended the police ac-tions used to break up theCity Square camp, sayingprotesters were given morethan two hours to leave.
‘‘We don’t really want toengage in this sort of ac-tivity but we’re not going tob ac k d own, either,’ ’ M rFontana said.
H e s a i d p a r a m e d i c schecked all protesters ar-rested andabout 20 sufferedminor injuries, with onetaken to hospital.
Twopolicewereinjured—
one was sent to hospitalwith sand in his eye. Eightpolice cars were damaged,including at least six withslashed tyres.
Premier Ted Baillieu de-clined to comment, saying itwas ‘‘an operational matter’’.
A spokeswoman for PoliceMinister Peter Ryan saidthe force believed it hadacted within its powers tokeep order.
In a tactic not seen onMelbourne’s streets for 17 years, some police usedchoke holds as theydraggedOccupy Melbourne pro-testers from the square.
James Gibson, 22, who isp i c t u r e d o n P a g e 1 o f today’s Herald Sun beingmoved by police, said theexperience had been brutal.
‘‘Police have been com-pletely out of line,’’ he said.
‘‘I have been really prettybrutalised bythem today, ashas everyone . . . I just can-not understand how theycould act that way towardspeaceful protesters.’’
Police last night provided
the Herald Sun withfootagethat it said showed officerswere not applying a sleeperhold to Mr Gibson.
‘ ‘The memb er has hishand in the vicinity of theprotester’s neck for lessthan two seconds and theyare continually moving toextract this protester, whowas unco-operative and ac-tively resisting police,’’ aspokesman said.
Pressure point holds wereabandoned by police in themid-90s after Herald Sun
photographer Peter Wardcaptured an image of ananti-logging protester onthe receiving end in 1994.
T h e a c t i o ns o f t h e400-plus police are expectedto come under scrutiny.S t a t e G r e e n s M P S u ePennicuik claimed some of-
ficers removed ID badges.The Australian Medical
Association warned againstpressure point holds.
‘‘The concern we have isthat it could cut off the ca-rotidartery flow andcauseastroke,’’ AMA state pres-ident Dr Harry Hemley said.
LordMayor RobertDoylesaid the protesters actedw i t h o u t i n t e g r i t y a n d‘‘were determined to con-flict with police’’.
‘‘When police tried to ac-tionthis theprotestersdeter-mined what happened next,not the police,’’ he said.
