We are publishing a short contribution on the demonstration held Saturday 28th January in Rome in solidarity with comrade Alfredo Cospito 101 days from the beginning of the hunger strike.

After the clashes, a demonstration was held in the small streets of Trastevere.
At the end of the demo a few dozen comrades were stopped by the DIGOS, police in riot gear and carabinieri.
