We publish the statements read by some of the anarchist comrades accused in the Sibilla trial in the preliminary hearing held on the 15th of January in Perugia. Amongst the defendants, is also Alfredo Cospito, who attended by videoconference from Bancali prison in (Sardinia) where he is locked up in the 41bis regime, who read a statement.

The hearing ended with a dismissal of all charges against all defendants, bringing to a conclusion an infamous case, which apart from aiming at the silencing of anarchist revolutionary publications, had a central role in Alfredo’s transfer to the 41bis regime. For a few hours Alfredo was able to hear the voices of his comrades, to see their faces, to speak, breaking the wall of silence in which they are trying to bury him. And this is certainly more stirring than any decision made by any state bureaucrat. In particular, Alfredo’s own words resonate as a powerful denunciation against the totalitarian horror of the 41bis regime. Those children’s handprints on the dividing glass in the visiting room should shake the consciences, of those who still have a conscience.

In the early hours of 30.21.24, we visited the Greek residence in Bern.

On October 31 of this year, an explosive device detonated in an apartment in Athens. It killed fellow anarchist Kyrikaos Xymitiris. Fellow anarchist Marianna, who was also in the apartment, was seriously injured in the explosion. Despite her serious injuries, she is currently in prison in Korydallos without adequate medical care (see more at: https://de.indymedia.org/node/478444).

In addition to Marianna, Dimitra, Dimitris, Nikos and A.K are in custody in connection with these events. They are all accused of the same thing: Founding and membership of a terrorist organization, possession and manufacture of explosives, and damage to private property.

FIRE TO THE PUMPS! FROM SÜNDI ( Hambach,Germany)

FIRE TO THE PUMPS! FROM SÜNDI

4 pumping stations for the Hambach Mine around Sündi were destroyed during the night of the 13th, 3 of which by fire, causing RWE to shut down the pumps in the area the next day. This is was following a failed attempt by security early in the day to erect some signs, which led to physical confrontations, barricading and a standoff.

After which some uncontrollables took a night walk with tools and gasoline. Any pump that stood closer to Hambi has been out of action for some time.

The Sündi is growing despite the imminent eviction threat, to clarify the Sündi is a small section of forest squatted since last September, that was once part of the nearby (and still squatted!) Hambacher forest.

prisoners mutiny on c wing – hmp swaleside, uk

21 January 2015

Prisoners in HMP Swaleside, C wing, have taken over that wing and staff

have retreated. We don’t have any more information at the moment. The reasons behind this are probably the bad conditions they’re under, lack of staff, lack of sanitary products, slavery wages and inconsistency onb the timetable (leading to being locked up more time and don’t know what their routine is). We’ll be updating when we get more information.

Please share! No one is free until all are free!

State and capital are the only terrorists – Solidarity with the armed rebels

On Thursday 16 January ‘25, we held a solidarity gathering for the imprisoned comrade – sentenced to several years imprisonment for his participation in the Revolutionary Struggle organisation – at Lamia court.

Comrades from Athens, Lamia and Chania, with loud pulse and slogans, we stood outside the courthouse of Lamia, which, as a mechanism of state and economic domination, applies tactics of political extermination, inspired by the tradition of counter-revolutionary terror courts.

From Paris to Athens from the depths of our hearts. (France)

On the 31th of October, a bomb exploded in an apartment in Athens, blowing the apartment up, killing our companion Kyriakos and injuring another companion, Marianna, who is now in hospital, out of danger. We wish to her that she will recover quickly and without after-effects. We are with her in thoughts. With Kyriakos the movement lost a companion and some lost a friend, a loved one.

But in its war, the State never allows a ceasefire : Kyriakos was hardly gone for a few hours when it started already to attack our mourning companions, unleashed its henchmen against the ones it already called “terrorists” and “guerilleros” as a reference to the guerillas of the 2000’. Many persons, M. among them, are thus targeted by a counter-terrorist investigation and prosecuted for 8 charges.

Text by Pola Roupa in View of the Judicial Council in Chalkida on January 10, ’25 (Greece)

Translated to English by Nikos Maziotis and Pola Roupa


I was released on November 17, 2023, after 8.5 years of detention in prison for my participation in the Revolutionary Struggle.

Under the current legal framework for a twenty-year prison sentence like mine, I could have been released earlier if I had more wages. However, the large number of trials, my constant transfers from Eleonas prison to Korydallos prison and the repeated quarantines that I was forced to undergo due to the transfers (covid regime), were the reasons why I lost many months of wages, increasing the time I spent in closed prison. The judicial council that decided on my release did nothing more than refuse to place me in an exceptional situation and decide as it has been deciding for years for the many hundreds of other prisoners.

A few days after my release, a deputy prosecutor of appeals in Chalkida appealed the decision of the Thebes misdemeanor court by which I was released, asking to return me to prison. On January 10, 2024, I was tried by a judicial council in Chalkida on the basis of an appeal requesting my re-imprisonment.

Update from the gathering at Kassavetia prison 31/12/24 (Greece)

On 31/12/24, a gathering was held at Kassavetia prison (juvenile wing) in solidarity with the anarchist comrade inside. The comrade has been in custody since 7/11/2024 accused of arson of an interrogation van in Messolonghi.

Arriving outside the prison with fliers and banners, the prisoners’ voices resonated with the intense atmosphere and joined our own. We stood for 25 minutes shouting slogans and there was great interaction with the prisoners. Throughout the entire duration, there was a discreet presence of the cops until our departure from the village where the prison is located.

STATES ARE THE ONLY TERRORISTS. SOLIDARITY WITH THE ARMED GUERILLAS
RIOT AND FIRE IN ALL CAGES
SOLIDARITY WITH THE ANARCHIST COMRADE K.K.

31/10 OUR BLOOD THEIR PERSECUTIONS

Two months ago, on 31/10 at Arcadia Street in Ampelokipi,
a crack in time was created when anarchist comrade Kyriakos
Xymitiris loses his life after an explosion. Anarchist comrade
Marianna is seriously injured and a “witch hunt” starts so that
they meet the requirements to set up the charges based on
the 187A law.

Learning the news about the facts in Ampelokipi and considering
possible that the repressive – media mechanisms of the state would
attempt to connect me to the case through the keys of the
apartment on Arcadia Street which I handed over to the comrades some days earlier, I returned to Greece from abroad where I live the
last years. Returning on Monday 4/11, they waited for me at the
airport at the landing point 15-20 anti-terrorist police officers,
seized my personal belongings and afterwards they transferred me
to the 13th floor of GADA . Initially they announced to me
my admission which later turned into arrest based on a
inflated and without proof set of charges about setting up and
participating in terrorist organization, explosion and possession,
construction and supply of explosives. Interrogator Mrs. Georgia
Kioulepoglou with the public prosecutor after the interrogative proceedings decided, with non-existent proof, my imprisonment. Two days earlier with the same loose charges comrade Dimitris was also imprisoned.

Solidarity from Uruguay to Athens.en/es/de

December 2024

We live in a world in which our existence is continuously threaten by the capitalist advances in all their expressions. Governments and businessman, mercenaries without scruples are responsible of keeping the status quo, while submitting all of us by means of state violence to a life of misery and resignation.Confronting such reality, those who rise up and resist head against this imposed reality, are turned immediately into terrorist.

This idea is sustained and reproduced thanks to the unconditional support of the dis-information media, which fulfills very well their role of deforming opinion. Nothing further from reality than the headlines of the local yellow press.

Who decides to attack?

There is no such things as a savior complex in those who decide to fight. It is rather a personal decision that keeps coherence with the chosen path in life. Tireless and stubborn, us who chose this way are the undesirable reflex of a society that thinks of it self in terms of the oppressor. Therefore, we will always be on the side of those who rise up, face the oppressor and attack. Making clear that these are not invulnerable monsters.
