Operazione Scripta Scelera: Gino Vatteroni è stato trasferito agli arresti domiciliari con tutte le restrizioni (7 novembre 2023)

Il 30 ottobre il tribunale del riesame di Genova ha disposto il trasferimento agli arresti domiciliari (con le restrizioni nelle comunicazioni, nelle visite e il braccialetto elettronico) per il compagno anarchico Gino Vatteroni, tradotto in carcere il 4 ottobre scorso per un aggravamento delle misure cautelari nei confronti suoi e di Veronica. Per quest’ultima compagna il passaggio dagli arresti domiciliari restrittivi all’obbligo di dimora con rientro notturno e tre firme a settimana è avvenuto il giorno successivo all’udienza, mentre Gino è rimasto nel carcere “San Michele” di Alessandria fino al 7 novembre. Attualmente si trova agli arresti domiciliari restrittivi.

Operation Scripta Scelera: Gino Vatteroni transferred to house arrest with all restrictions (Italy, November 7, 2023)

On October 30th, the re-examination court of Genoa ordered the transfer under house arrest (with restrictions on communications, visits and the electronic bracelet) for anarchist comrade Gino Vatteroni, who was transferred in prison on October 4th for an aggravation of the precautionary measures against him and Veronica. For the latter comrade, the passage from restrictive house arrest to the obligation to stay in the municipality of residence with nightly return to her home (from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m.) and three signatures a week at a local barracks took place the day after the hearing in Genoa, while Gino remained in the ‘San Michele’ prison in Alessandria until November 7th. Finally he was transferred, so he is now under restrictive house arrest.

Trento, Italy: Updates about Nasci, comrade prisoner in the prison of Trento

Trento: Updates about Nasci, comrade prisoner in the prison of Trento

Some more news about our friend Nasci and what happened to him, leading to his imprisonment in Spini di Gardolo.

Nasci was arrested by the DIGOS on the morning of October 10th for a sentence of one year and two months for three different episodes: the occupation in February 2017 of the town hall of Municipio di Mori (a village of about 10.000 inhabitents near Rovereto), during a well-attended lively mobilization against a project of environmental devastation – since realized unfortunately – ; a writing on a wall in Florence in August of the same year, during an initiative in solidarity with those arrested in Operation Panico; the events of February 9th 2018 in Trento, when comrades contested creatively (among which serious damage to the clothing shop of a fascist stabber) the usual Casapound event on the occasion of the “Foibe Day”.*

On the edge of the precipice: the text of a leaflet given out in Trento by anarchist comrades on the occasion of an initiative against repression in solidarity with the oppressed in Gaza.(Italy)

We are publishing here – in a slightly modified version – the text of a leaflet given out in Trento by anarchist comrades on the occasion of an initiative against repression that turned into a meeting in solidarity with the oppressed in Gaza, against the attempted genocide in act at this moment by the State of Israel. A first contribution of ours to  orient oneself in the abyss that is opening in the Middle East – and everywhere.

Here in leaflet format in  it pdf: Aprecipizio

We are also adding a graphic version made by a comrade, whom we thank: a_precipizio_grafico

On the edge of the precipice

As State repression strikes harder and harder, in Gaza the gates of the abyss are opening wide.

What has been experienced here against rebel minorities for years – constant mystification of the concept of «terrorism», prison isolation of comrades to prevent them even reading and writing, closure of websites and detention of the editors of an anarchist fortnightly – now spreads to anyone who disagrees or even remembers the history that war propaganda would like to erase. Newspaper editors hailing the destruction of Gaza in television parlors, students beaten in Livorno for a banner reading «Neither with Israel nor with Hamas», French and German governments banning demonstrations in solidarity with the Palestinian people as it «supports terrorism» – all this is telling even the most distracted one precise thing: we are at war.

Rome’s Surveillance Court has denied the request on behalf of Alfredo Cospito to revoke his detention under 41bis prison regime
(Oct.23rd, 2023)

Today, Oct. 23rd. We inform you all on the outcome of the hearing held Oct. 19th. at Rome’s Surveillance Court: the request for an immediate suspension of detention under the 41 bis regime of the anarchist comrade Alfredo Cospito has been denied. We remind you that Alfredo is currently held prisoner in the Bancali prison, in Sassari (Address: Alfredo Cospito, C. C. “G. Bacchiddu”, strada provinciale 56 n. 4, Località Bancali, 07100 Sassari, Italy).

On this occasion, notwithstanding the favourable opinions of some anti-terrorism departments – namely, the Direzione Nazionale Antimafia e Antiterrorismo (Anti-mafia and Ant-terrorism National Department) and the Direzione Centrale della Polizia di Prevenzione (Central Directorate of Prevention Police) concerning a suspension of his detention under 41 bis, the political will to keep our comrade within this prison regime has prevailed.

EN/IT`“Leitmotiv”, internationalist anarchist paper (Italy)

“Leitmotiv”, internationalist anarchist paper

POSTHUMOUS NEWS

This newspaper is an expression of solidarity to the comrades under investigation and subjected to precautionary measures in the ”op. Scripta scelera”.

The drafting of this paper has involved the participation of comrades who have always supported anarchist prisoners and revolutionary practices from dissociation and obscurantism towards comrades under investigation for actions considered “striking”. At a time like the present, where the repression against anarchists and the anarchist press has become acute, we welcomed the proposal to bring out a paper that is “provocative” and a challenge to the Genovese prosecutor and the DDAA led by Federico Manotti, a little man, servant of the state.

Leitmotiv, is the name we wanted to give this single issue of the paper as it traces and follows the same themes and lines as the internationalist anarchist fortnightly Bezmotvny.
Leitmotiv would have come out earlier if we had not come up against cop obstructionism, perhaps due to our superficiality; the day we were due to pick up copies at a commercial printer’s we were contacted by the owner who informed us that he had been contacted by the carabinieri.

WAR IS EVERYWHERE

The ongoing war in Ukraine between the Russian Federation and NATO is not a local conflict, but part of a global clash for the partitioning of the world that threatens to erupt elsewhere every day (Africa, Serbia, Azerbaijan, Armenia…). Having become a veritable meat grinder, with hundreds of thousands of deaths among forcibly conscripted soldiers and civilians, the conflict in Ukraine is already having an impact on African populations forced to emigrate due to the rising cost of cereals and the ensuing escalation in local clashes. After letting more than a hundred people drown in Cutro, the Italian government prepares its iron fist against migrants and immigrants (opening of new concentration camps in every Region, administrative detention even for asylum seekers), while boosting its Italian imperialism with the “Mattei plan for Africa”.

THE WAR IS ALSO HERE

A society at war can only be a secured and militarized society.

Between permanent States of Emergency and supposedly green transitions, smart city projects are preparing the transformation of cities into real digital prisons, flanking the already ubiquitous police and military with the installation of facial recognition cameras (as in the case of the “new ZTL” in Rome and Milan), sensors that monitor cellular traffic, smart control booths (as in Venice) and even microphones (as in Trento).

Operation Scripta Scelera: Gino Vatteroni has been transferred from the prison of Massa to that of Alessandria (9th October 2023)


The anarchist comrade Gino Vatteroni has been transferred from the prison of Massa to that of Alessandria, in “Alta Sicurezza 2” [High-security 2], where many anarchist comrades have been imprisoned in the past and where some revolutionary communist militants are currently being held. The comrade finds himself in maximum security as the charge of incitement to commit crime (art. 414 c. p.) has been aggravated with that of ‘terrorist aims’ (art. 270 bis 1 c. p.).

We inform you that on October 4th an aggravation of the precautionary measures has been notified concerning two of the anarchist comrades accused in the operation Scripta Scelera of the 8th of August against the internationalist anarchist fortnightly “Bezmotivny”. Following some reports by the DIGOS relating to alleged violations of restrictions, the judge for preliminary investigations ordered transfer to prison for Gino Vatteroni (who was under house arrest with full restrictions) and aggravation of the precautionary measure for Veronica (originally placed under obligation to remain with night re-entry from 19:00 to 07:00 and is now under house arrest with all restrictions).

The state would like to silence revolutionary anarchist propaganda…

Four house arrests with restrictions on visits, communication and the electronic bracelet, five obligations to stay in the municipality of residence combined with the obligation to return home at night from 7 pm to 7 am (including one subsequently aggravated to house arrest), in front of a request of ten arrests in prison; house searches and against the Circolo Culturale Anarchico “Gogliardo Fiaschi” and a commercial typography in Carrara (initially placed under seizure and released after a few days); huge seizures of papers and anarchist and revolutionary publications… This was the outcome of the repressive operation Scripta Scelera of August 8th against the internationalist anarchist fortnightly “Bezmotivny”. A “surgical raid” against a paper that for three years has published analyses and reflections aimed at the critical in-depth analysis of social reality, as well as claims and informative texts concerning actions of attack against structures and figures of the state and capital, responsible for all forms of exploitation and social oppression.

After the media hullabaloo and pompous declarations, if you allow, we also have something to say

We are not surprised by operations like this. Ever since anarchism emerged – not from the scholarly abstractions of some philosopher, but from revolutionary experiences, from the aspirations of the oppressed – anarchists’ papers have been hit. States have a long history of massacres, torture, assassinations, thousands of years of imprisonment against revolutionaries. We have the impetus of the dream and the risk of action, the determination of the will and the strength of necessity. And we continue on the path we have taken… Let inquisitors and illustrious magistrates get over it, beyond and against all censorship and repression, we will continue to rejoice every time this authoritarian social reality is attacked, its certainties shattered and troubled by the roar of revolt.
