Responsibility claim for the explosive attack against the Aeronautica Militare base of Forte Appio by Circolo d’azione “8 marzo” (Rome, Italy, April 22, 2023)

Rome: Responsibility claim for the explosive attack against the Aeronautica Militare base of Forte Appio by Circolo d’azione “8 marzo”

On the night of April 22nd, we placed a device near Forte Appio in Rome, one of the hideouts of Aeronautica Militare [italian Air Force]. We celebrate the 100th anniversary of its birth in this way. A little reminder for those who sow war and misery all over the world. Banks, politicians, military, scientists… they are rubbish and as such must be wiped out.

Let’s not forget the massacres in the sea and in prisons like when in March 2020 the state suppressed with blood the just revolt of the prisoners, killing 14 of them. Strength and love for Serge, a comrade who is between life and death after being shot by the French cops. Solidarity with Alfredo, Juan, Anna and all those who do not lower their heads. For the diffusion of revolutionary, violent and destructive action.

Anarchist Alfredo Cospito ended his hunger strike undertaken since Oct. 20

On Wednesday, April 19, 2023, anarchist Alfredo Cospito ended the hunger strike he began 181 days earlier, on Oct. 20, 2022, inside the Bancali prison in Sardinia. The comrade, who is currently an inmate in the prison medicine ward of the San Paolo Hospital in Milan, had been on an all-out hunger strike for six months against the detention regime established by Article 41 bis of the Penitentiary Order (a regime to which he had been transferred on May 5, 2022) and against the hostile life sentence, which risked being the final sentence for the comrade at the end of the Scripta Manent trial.

The interruption of the hunger strike comes in the wake of the April 18 hearing in Rome at the Constitutional Court, which recognized the prevalence of mitigating circumstances vis-à-vis repeated recidivism in the case of all convictions for crimes whose fixed penalty is life imprisonment. This is the case of Alfredo, in that with the requalification (by the court of cassation, at the end of the Scripta Manent trial) of the charge inherent in the double explosive attack against the Caserma Allievi Carabinieri in Fossano on June 2, 2006, from “common massacre” (art. 422 c. p.) to “political massacre” (i.e., “massacre for the purpose of attacking the security of the state,” art. 285 c. p.), comrades Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino were facing a sentence of hostile life imprisonment and 27 years in prison, respectively, as requested by the Turin prosecutor’s office.

Rome Italy: About the constitutional court hearing on the convictions for the anarchists Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino in the Scripta Manent trial.

About the constitutional court hearing on the convictions for the anarchists Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino in the Scripta Manent trial (Rome, 18 April 2023)

Today the hearing took place in the constitutional court for the case of Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino concerning the accusation of political massacre (art. 285 c. p.) within the Scripta Manent trial.
The existing Cirielli law (year 2005, Berlusconi government) prevents mitigating factors from outweighing aggravating factors in the event of recidivism. Particularly in Alfredo Cospito’s case, this would have resulted in a definite sentence of life imprisonment despite the fact that the action he and Anna are accused of did not cause any victims.

The court therefore found this rule unconstitutional. What is more, reading the brief press release that came out of the courthouse, the court seems to have raised doubts of constitutionality in general with regard to all those cases where the fixed penalty is uniquely life imprisonment.

Athens,Greece : ALFREDO OUT OF 41 BIS!

ALFREDO OUT OF 41 BIS!

Open assembly to organize a response commensurate with the importance of the situation

The struggle waged by anarchist prisoner Alfredo Cospito against the 41bis prison regime and the life imprisonment without parole has reached its most dramatic point. Notwithstanding the opening of contradictions (opinion of the DNAA, opinion of the DDA of Turin, opinion of the PG at the Court of Cassation, order of the re-examination of the Sibilla Operation) every time an institutional organism with effective power to resolve the question opened by the comrade has met, the most manectarian and warmongering faction of the State has invested all its political power to crush any possible opening.

We have said it too many times: Alfredo’s death sentence is now an established fact, if the comrade is still alive we owe it solely to his extraordinary resistance. The decision to lock up an anarchist in 41 bis prison regime for the first time, taken by the previous Draghi government and Minister Marta Cartabia, as well as the determination to persevere in this criminal choice by the new right-wing government of Meloni and the current minister Carlo Nordio, count as an act of war. The tip of the iceberg of the “internal front” of a larger war, which on the international level is fought between NATO and the Russian Federation, and which is being expressed in our home with an unprecedented attack against social antagonism, against conflictual unionism and especially against action anarchism.

Genoa, Italy: Claim for the incendiary attack on some vehicles of Iren in solidarity with anarchist prisoners (31 March 2023)

Genoa,: Claim for the incendiary attack on some vehicles of Iren in solidarity with anarchist prisoners.

Democracy cannot allow certain thoughts to be spelled out clearly, and certain words to be used with impunity, because they might catch on among the oppressed, the excluded. These words without stakes take on greater weight for me because they have cost me and will cost me more years in jail, but it is my way of resisting, of fighting back.
Alfredo Cospito (January 2021)

In the night of 31st March we attacked some vehicles of the IREN company with fire, Italy’s leading district heating service company, operating in electricity production and distribution and technology services.

IREN is a new company but with a veteran entrepreneurial posture in line with all other criminal multinationals like ENI and Benetton who profit from the destruction and plundering of territories around the planet. That was sufficient for putting the IREN group in our sights; if we then add news of recent weeks, that IREN struck agreements with the Israeli Mekorot water company implementing water apartheid to the Palestinian people, then the decision to attack it was more than spot on.

EN/GR/: Important updates on the health condition and the condition of imprisonment for the anarchist Alfredo Cospito (Italy)

Important updates on the health condition and the condition of inprisonment for the anarchist Alfredo Cospito

Alfredo has NOT ended the hunger strike!

The news circulated in the media these days is false and slanderous, as is now the habit in this story: he was offered milk, but Alfredo refused it. If he decides to start eating again, he will follow the instructions given to him by his trusted doctor some time ago.

In view of the hearing on April 18, he decided to resume supplements: potassium to stabilize the heart, vitamins to try to stem the neurological problem in the lower limbs, and proteins. After the hearing at the constitutional court in Rome, called to express itself on the legal legitimacy of granting or not extenuating circumstances in relation to the conviction for 285 c. p. (“massacre for the purpose of undermining the security of the State”, which only provides for life imprisonment) decreed by the cassation in the context of the Scripta Manent process, will decide how to proceed.

Anti-State Gathering-Demo in Solidarity with the anarchist hunger striker (since 10/20/22 in Italy) Alfredo Cospito on Sunday April 9th, at 13:00, Thiseio Metro Station .

FREEDOM TO ALFREDO COSPITO

FIRE TO 41 BIS AND ALL FORMS OF INCARCERATION

Alfredo Cospito is an anarchist who has always been active in the frontline of struggles. He was never willing to compromise nor to give up. He is a comrade who has been fighting since the end of the 80’s, a period during which he was imprisoned as a total conscientious objector (for refusing to serve mandatory military services).

Alfredo has always been active in defending comrades affected by repression, in every corner of the world. He has been contributing for many years with articles, editorial projects and proposals to the international anarchist discussion/debate. For this reason, he has been censored many times and his communication with the “outside world” has been forbidden. He has been in prison for 10 years (since 2012), during which he was in High Security prison sectors until he was transferred to 41bis inMay 2022, from Terni prison to Bankali prison in Sassari.

The 41bis prison regime entails 24/7 electronic surveillance, 1 person per cell of 2×3 meters, 1 hour per day for socializing in a group of 4 people (the seperation into these groups is decided directly by the bureaucrats in Rome and is valid for several months), 1 visit per month of 1 hour with no physical contact, separation with glass divider, under electronic surveillance, with audio and video recording (only if the family members are unable to visit, a monthly 10-minute phone call is allowed as an alternative, but to do so, the prisoner’s family member must go to a police station or in some prison), no physical contact, censorship and control of written material, presence at court only through video-conferences.
