Students Seize Radio Station

Students Seize Radio Station

At the end of April. 16 university students temporarily occupied the broadcasting rooms of the commercial radio station "2GB" in Sydney.

They overpowered the three employees there and for 15 minutes they broadcast their own programme of tape-recordings in which they made fun of the British Royal Family and well-known Australian personalities. When the police finally arrived the students had already disappeared.
