Activist arrested after penning a blog post calling out a “screw-rat infiltrator”

Activist, journalist and blogger Dan Kellar was arrested last week after he named and published a picture of a man he believed to be an undercover police officer infiltrating activist groups. Kellar told his readers in a blog post on peaceculture.org to “spit in [the] footsteps and scoff at his existence” (yikes!). The Toronto Media Co-op is reporting that Kellar’s charges include criminal defamation and counselling his readers to commit assault, among others. Kellar is also a member of an anti-war group that saw several of its members arrested before the G20 summit. The blog post has since been deleted—but Google Cache seems to have snagged it.
