Right to protest – Konijn in Nood

Konijn in Nood Foundation stands up against the poor conditions under which rabbits have to live in the livestock industry. Therefore, a protest was organized at a rabbit farm in Vijfheerenlanden on December 18, 2021.

Because of the risk of hostile listeners and because of traffic pressure, the foundation and the demonstrators were not allowed to protest for the desired 90 minutes, but only 50 minutes. In addition, they were not allowed to use a megaphone. They were also not allowed to come by car themselves, so they had to rent an (expensive) coach.

On January 14, 2022, PILP, on behalf of the Konijn in Nood Foundation, objected to the decision of the Mayor of Vijfheerenlanden on the regulations and restrictions imposed on the foundation’s demonstration.

The mayor followed the advice of the Vijfheerenlanden Objections Committee and vindicated Konijn in Nood Foundation on all points of objection.
