Volkswagen Polo 1998 ?

How do I repair drum brakes on a 1998 Polo as they are sticking??

brake's are sticking on because some tool has been tightening the handbrake cable.this result's in shoe lever mechanisim siezing on.This make's removing the drum's an absolute pain,even for a pro.Best advice is to get a pro to do it.even if you'r very competent you will wish you never started it.Official time alloted is 30-40 min's per side,last one took me 2 1/2 hour's for one side.NOT FUN!
