Yesterday 19 September we were able to embrace Agnese again. 
Free at last after about 5 years between precautionary measures and final sentences [definitivi di pena],our friend and comrade is with us again. Aware that what we are fighting for is a very distant horizon, we know that having her here by our side is one more reason for looking towards an elsewhere, together.
There where there is action, love, life.

After months of managing to have a linear correspondence with the anarchist comrade Salvatore Vespertino, presently locked up in the prison of Spoleto and with application of censorship of mail, we have noticed progressive delays in correspondence getting in and out.
We don’t know whether some letters are disappearing informally or not as is happening with other comrades, for example in the case of Paolo Todde, prisoner in the prison of Uta (CA) who only receives registered post. From Salvatore’s last letter going back to 28/08 that reached 
us on 8/09 we learn that he has 18 letters formally blocked, as well as a number of packages of books that have been classified as parcels in spite of the P.L. postal settings.

The Hostage-taking does not end, it just changes its face
Conditional release imposes the well-known restrictions: Presence at the police station and a ban on leaving the country until the end of the sentence. This is a normal procedure. However, what the state reserves for the cases of prisoners convicted under 187A, the well-known “anti-terrorism” law, is the subjection of everyone to the control and restrictions of an authority that was also established in Greece following a European directive.
This is the Anti-Money Laundering Authority, Section B (from now on in the text I will refer to it as an Authority) which is headed by prosecutors. Based on Article 50 of Law 4557/2018, everyone who has been convicted of dynamic-armed forms of resistance, that is, for “terrorism” according to state phraseology and legislation, has no right over any asset in their possession, whether it concerns bank accounts or real estate or anything else, since everything is frozen by the Authority.

FIRE TO ALL ABATTOIRS!
Yesterday 22 September 2025, we were freed from remand in custody totally unexpectedly. Yippee !
We were advised to follow a deradicalisation programme at the Munich K43 police station [the one in charge of « left wing extremism »]. For the moment, we’re going to rest and we’ll tell you more very soon.
Please, don’t send any more letters to the prison, they will just end up on the cops’ desks.
Thank you for your great support!
Nathalie and Manuel
What happened before :Update on the imprisonment of the two comrades. (June 2025)
* Ndt : in Germany the « Aussteigerprogramm », or literally the «exit programmes», are equivalent to the French deradicalisation programmes. They concern Islamists as well as neonazis, antifas as well as autonomes or those close to PKK (on the basis of volunteering). In Munich, they have been run since 2001 by the Bavarian information centre against extremism (BIGE).

Information from the Evelpidon courts on the supplementary investigative procedure for the Ampelokipi case – Day 2
Dozens of comrades joined the second day of the gatherings taking place at the courts of the courts of Evelpidon on the occasion of the supplementary investigative procedure for those prosecuted in the Ampelokipi case. Shortly before 9am, EOM(Special Suppressive Antiterrorist Unit )transport transported comrade Dimitra Zarafeta and comrade Dimitris to the interrogator in building 9.
Anarchist comrade Dimitra submitted a memorandum with her positions and spoke about the fabricated indictment and answering a clarifying question from the interrogator about some of the findings of the anti-terrorist investigation.
Comrade Dimitris then submitted his own memorandum that deconstructed the flawed indictment and also answered a clarifying question from the interrogator.
According to information they each received from the investigator, the case file is expected to be closed in the near future as they do not have to wait for any other evidence.
The process ended shortly after 12.30, when the comrades gathered approached the two comrades and, shouting slogans, accompanied them to the transporter cage.
We will be back again tomorrow, Thursday 25/09 at 8:30 when the supplementary interrogation process will continue with the anarchist comrade Nikos Romanos and A.K.

Solidarity Assembly for imprisoned, fugitive

day 1
Over 100 comrades accompanied the solidarity gathering that took place at the courts of the old Evelpidon courts in Athens ,on the morning of Tuesday 23/09. Shortly before 9, the Special Suppressive Antiterrorist Unit van transported comrade Marianna Manoura to the investigator in building 9, while solidarity comrades were shouting slogans, they were pushed back by riot police who were at the scene. The anarchist comrade Marianna did not accept to answer any questions from the investigator and the prosecutor, except for some clarifications about the non-involvement of the remaining defendants in the case. She submitted the memorandum with her positions and explained that she would testify in court about everything related to the case.
After more than 2 years’ confinement, the time has come for me to take a stand. In fact, the need to publish this text arose from the first moment of my arrest, however, personal reasons from the nature of the initial charges that weighed on me to confinement itself, have been an obstacle.
My arrest took place on 18/01/23 after a police raid on my home, as well as the homes of 6 other people with whom I had exclusively friendly/social relations. In an attempt to build and inflate the conspiracy against us, unrelated things were thrown together, with the aim of charging us with forming a criminal organization, a charge that – although ultimately dropped along with many others – was necessary for the authorities to secure our pretrial detention, but also to create impressions of an alleged great success of the ELAS ( greek police).
During the search that took place at my home on the day of my arrest, the following were found and confiscated: 2 wigs, books, brochures of the anarchist/anti-authoritarian space and other personal items such as clothes, shampoo, etc. Obviously the above were not sufficient to detain me and then a series of methods began, starting with the dictated identifications that the Patras Security Service secured in order to carry out its job.

Indonesia, September 18, 2025, by XIII-XII.
After the mass action that took place at the end of August and early
September, a wave of mass arrests followed, with thousands of people being detained across various cities in Indonesia — both post-action arrests and sweeps from those already arrested. Even now, various anti-authoritarian groups in Indonesia are experiencing widespread paranoia, which is understandable for some people due to the state’s cyber operations aimed at mapping both formal and informal anti-authoritarian cells. Several collective and individual names have already been collected, which only adds to the paranoid climate that continues to persist.
Some refer to this as “going underground,” or even as an individual safety method, to later continue efforts for solidarity with comrades who have been designated as suspects.

Almost 12 months have passed since 31/10/2024. Therefore, the Solidarity Assembly for fugitives, persecuted and imprisoned fighters, in Athens, Greece, is considering to organize two days of action and in memory of our comrade.
During our first discussions around the topic, and while in contact with comrade Mariana Manoura, we came up with the idea of an event (Thursday 30th October) about other comrades who have lost their lives in similar ways during the past, hopefully with the participation of comrades from other countries with similar experiences.
We aim for these two days to end with a demo (Friday 31st October) in memory of the armed fighter Kyriakos Ximitiris. Continue reading (Greece) 1 year after the loss of Kyriakos
As long as there are those who are lost in battle, we will exist to continue the war
And when we die, we die like stars scattering light. Like that light that shone a year before the explosives explosion in the Ampelokipi apartment on 10/31, when the anarchist armed fighter Kyriakos Xymitiris was walking the last part of his journey, where everything is condensed into a moment, where his revolutionary consciousness aligns with the desire to put an end to this aging world that feeds on his flesh.
Filled with immense comradeship, determination and with no inclination to retreat, he committed himself to the struggle with a vision of freedom. With clear eyes, comrade Kyriakos Xymitiris made no concessions to emotion, he loved life, honouring it with every breath he took. Both in Berlin and in Athens, he participated in all the fields of struggle indiscriminately. In rallies and marches against gentrification, in anti-fascist and anti-patriarchal patrols, in mass poster pastings, in militant defences of occupations, in struggles against colonialism and prisons.

We are not living in the era of the junta, but we are living under the junta of our time. In recent years, and even more so in the last six years, the criminal organization of New Democracy has been ruling the country with the tactics of a monarchy and an authoritarian regime. Amid political scandals and state crimes, it “exploits” security to sell fear to the people. Its main argument in its attempt to gather a few votes is prisons and the harshest repression. In the country’s ostensibly “correctional” institutions and in the otherwise blind and independent justice system that decides who will become an inmate and who will not, their criteria are not evidence of guilt but ideological position, wallet size, skin color, party connections, and the privileged clique to which some belong.
It is clear that Greek courts are anything but incorruptible. Every day, hundreds of trials are held in the country with the aim of repressing and intimidating citizens. For the majority of people, exhausting laws, mass detentions, and illogical sentences have made conditions in the country’s prisons unbearable and inhumane, culminating in the New Democracy party’s repressive resolutions, such as the new penal code and the abolition of all the acquired rights of the state .

Week number five of oral trial was developed giving continuity to the raid in the “La Victoria” neighborhood, PAC, where the two brothers were arrested on December 22, 2022. Police groups OS9, GOPE and LABOCAR found various elements in this place amounting to a large amount of evidence. Using this they made long reports, including ballistics, tests of electrical elements and tests of functioning and detonation of the samples taken from the various explosives, as well as items such as electronic devices (technology) and computer expertise among other things. Reports prepared by experts and a large number of police officers were made to testify about their respective investigative stage in these reports.
