Indymedia UK reports that servers hosted by Italian group Autistici have been hacked by police. At the same time, servers belonging to Indymedia UK Bristol were seized by police.
According to that BBC report, police explained with this analogy:

The raid and arrest were carried out by the British Transport Police.
A spokesman said: "This is not unusual. When we get wind of graffiti, for example, we often do house searches."

This story echoes another one, where British Indymedia machines were nabbed by US forces in fall 2004.
