Letter of intimidation

October 12, 2004 Long Island, NY – The Animal Defense League - Long Island, received the following letter sent by ALF. In publicizing the letter ADL-LI states “…However the ADL - LI supports all forms of direct actions with the exception of violence towards any human or non-human animal.

It has become sad commentary that afinities have had to resort to these measures. No matter how uncomfortable the following read may be please remember that while Shankar and his family rest comfortably in their homes 70,000 animals are waiting to be tortured and killed inside Huntingdon Life Sciences.

The ALF are freedom fighters, not terrorists!

Copy of the letter:

A letter sent to Shankar Hariharan, the entire Forest Labs Management, and Par Pharmaceuticals: "We have been watching and following you Shankar, your wife Puspha, and your kid Ram. We've followed you to and from Forest Labs, xxx Commerce Drive, Hauppauge. We were watching you when you bought your new Mercedes-Benz. Wewent inside and told them they were accepting money from a murderer, and allowing a killer to drive from his home to the vivisection lab to kill animals. They were very sympathetic. Almost too sympathetic: Vehicle Id: WDBNG84J34A41xxxx. We even know the person who sold you the car - Helen Lamb (631 xxx-xxxx ex 23 hlamb@competitionbmw.com).

We've followed you again when you've gotten oil changes at the dealership (Competition BMW at xxx East Jericho Turnpike in Smithtown). One of the workers took down your plate number, memorized it, and said that if he ever gets the opportunity to work on your car, he's putting something other than new oil in it.

Puspha, we were spying on you the whole time you were in Macy's at the Smith Haven Mall and several times when you went to Sunny Farms (xxxx Jericho Tpke). We talked to the technician (Danny West) from Suburban Exterminating Service when they came to your house on June 15th. We followed you to the OB-GYN that day. We've seen you go into Starbucks. Your account number with 3M healthcare is HBWxxxx. We know about your account at Greenpoint Bank in Commack. Your credit card number is xxxxxxxxxxxx4265.

We've seen you go into your doctor's office (373 Route xxx) Esenbike Bek (NY lic no xxxxxx). We've contacted your doctor at 516 xxx-xxxx and told them about Forest's refusal to cut ties with Huntingdon Life Sciences (HLS). Ourknowledge about your life has gotten a little to personal - we know you ****your wife with pink Durex condoms. Too bad the animals you poison will neverget to enjoy sex. Think about that the next time you're ****ing your ugly wife.

We realized you've left Forest now, so you can rest safe. Or can you? You left Forest to become the Chief Scientific Officer of Par Pharmaceuticals.

Since you have a history of using HLS, we suspect you might use them withyour new company. Hopefully you've got some brains! Want to really stop thestalking - convince your new company to come out with a press statement andpost it on your website (parpharm.com) informing us that Par Pharma willNEVER contract to Huntingdon Life Sciences/Life Sciences Research under anycircumstances. Or would you like us to talk to them for you? First we'llstart contacting them at work, and then at home. And we won't stop visitingthem or you. Save yourself and us the time.

WE KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU:

Shankar, Pushpa, and Ram
