At the dawn of Thursday, June 5, we placed an incendiary device on the facade of the Directorate of Transport and Communications of of South Athens regional unit, part of the Ministry of Transport, in area Alimos.
Our daily transport is operated by the state for smooth operation of the consumerist reality. Transportation networks for our existences, which are fully recognized with the identity of employee-consumer, to bring us to and from our work and to the respective businesses where we will carry out our financial transactions.
They perceive society as a whole, as a non-expendable structure,
consisting of expendable bodies and with this as a guideline, using
their privileged position within the democratic system, ministerial
figures ensure the greatest possible profit for themselves.
Control systems, ever-increasing fines, transportation costs,
privatization deals, the embezzlement of funds and general shirking over operational infrastructure issues, leading to murders (see Tempi), are on the agenda of the ministry in question.
However, the representatives of the state mechanism are not content only with what has to do with the institution they are directly involved in. The ideology of exploitation and profit is always spread by its ideologists in every possible condition and through various circuits.
In the above, we will refer to Dimitris Karras, director of the
political office of the deputy minister of transport, Vasilis Economou.
Mitsakos, a genuine sub-employee of New Democracy who was also president of ΟΝΝΕΔ (Youth Organisation of New Democracy party)
of area Voula-Vari-Vouliagmenis, is one of those directly involved in
the “Amaryllis” trafficking case. Besides, in the patriarchical
centuries that we are living through, not displaying the characteristics of masculinity puts you at the top of the list of candidates for all kinds of scum that tries to impose itself morally, physically and financially. This particular man was the owner of 2 companies and responsible for another one, from which the circuit laundered the money.
The said circuit attracted women mainly from Colombia, plus some from Venezuela and Albania, who were economically vulnerable, mothers of minors or children with health problems. After persuading them to come to Greece, by offering them false working conditions, they would take away their passports and inform them of a debt of 2,500-3,000 euros that they had to pay off. A debt that never went away since they would pay 10 euros a day for their transportation from the apartment they had to the brothel, 10 euros for their food, as well as extra money for accommodation and condoms. In addition, they would be charged “fines” if
there were days when they refused to go to the brothel (100 euros) or if there were “unsatisfied” customers. Each meeting cost 50 euros, of which the circuit took 37.5 while the woman took 12.5.
When Amaryllis, the girl who managed to escape and reach Madrid,
initially attempted to communicate with the Greek authorities via email in October and December of ’22, she was completely ignored. The first raids by the Greek authorities began the following year, and while they did locate women from Colombia, they did not lead anywhere. In the end, and with the involvement of Interpol, the ring was dismantled in the summer of ’23, while Dimitris Karras served as director of the political office of the Deputy Minister from June to September of ’24 (where he was taken down for the public eye), that is, a whole year after the dismantling.
It is worth mentioning that the case file involved people who are also
involved in the Greek mafia case files and the case of the 19-year-old
girl in area of Ilioupolis , as well as that the brothel where Elias Michos took the 12-year-old girl also belonged to the pimps of the ring.
So it is clear to us. Authority operates with specific models and a
society that walks the paths of respectability legitimizes them. It
wakes up momentarily only when manifestations of the, as a whole, regime of devaluation of human life knock on its door and hit its children. But the cries of these children are common with the cries of those who are sacrificed in the name of power and profit. They are common with the cries of the potentially rebellious part of ourselves, which we have subjugated in our bowels, for the sake of a “peaceful” life.
The attack on the structures of domination and its representatives is
our revenge. It is our way of having life in our hands and them terror
in their eyes.
