If you hadn’t heard, at the moment it appears that the Hare Krishna devotees in Kazakhstan are being unjustly persecuted. They have a farm community over there called Palace of the Soul, and the government has seized the farm, and the police are evicting the devotees and bulldozing their residences. You can see a video and read more about it here.

You can also read more on in the ISKCON News.Net archive for the 27th of April, and on Forum 18 news.

If you live in Australia and wish to register a protest against this, then contact the Kazakhstan Consulate at:

144 Clyde Street

phone:(612)9365-3011,
fax:9365-3044

Update: I tried emailing this address, but it bounced. I called to speak with the Consul, and left a message on the voice mail for them to call me back.
