NEWS FROM THE TRIAL OF THE COMRADES IN BANDUNG

Six comrades from the Political Expression Hunting Cluster (also often referred to as the Chaos Star Case) have undergone sentencing today. The outcome of the trial is that comrades AD and MNT were sentenced by the prosecutor to 3 years in prison. Meanwhile, comrades RFK, TAP, MJF, and RS were sentenced to 2 years and 6 months in prison.

A few words from a letter sent by a comrade involved in the Chaos Star case:

“We are particles of an entity called disorder, which is supposed to exist within the spectrum of defiance as our wild instinct, as unique and lazy individuals!”

No one is free until everyone is free.

Île-de-France : Fireworks against imprisonment!!

Indymedia Lille / Saturday 3rd January 2026

On Wednesday 31 December, as it has been for many years, some people went to shout their anger about jails and detention centres and their solidarity with the prisoners. Continue reading For , des feux d’artifice contre tout enfermement (France) →

One night in January 2026, we went out to vandalize some places in the city of Xalapa, Veracruz, joining the solidarity mobilization for the imprisoned anarchist Arturo Lugo “Sheveck”, in a new repressive action by the 4T [Fourth Transformation] and the UNAM [University of Mexico] against the anarchist movement*. Let us fight repression with the strength of our solidarity. Arm your group!

Accused anarchist comrade Eat, in the Chaos Star case, has been released from the West Java paramilitary police compound to house/city arrest. Eat is expected to be watched closely by the Densus88 antiterrorist unit. Comrades and lawyers went to meet him and take him to get nutrition, medicine and rest. Eat remains under investigation and the case is still open. Here’s what Eat’s lawyer had to say about his status:

‘Eat was release by operation of law because the detention period during the investigation stage had expired and could not be extended. However, this release is temporary, as the legal process is still ongoing. The case is currently awaiting transfer from the prosecutor’s office. If it proceeds to the prosecution stage, Eat may be detained again and transferred to Kebon Waru Detention Center for trial.

From a substantive standpoint, Eat actually has a legal advantage in this case. The charges and the investigation report do not meet the required legal elements, particularly those related to incitement. There is no clear evidence of any direct call or instruction to organize or carry out last year’s protest, as alleged. because of this, the prosecutors themselves are hesitant to move the case forward to court.’

This hesitation has also influenced the investigator’s decision not to pursue a second case involving Eat and another named comrade. We thank everyone for their solidarity and support. Without international pressure, we do not believe that Eat would have been released.

Nothing is over. Eat could be re-arrested. There are another 73 accused anarchists and hundreds of prisoners of the uprising still detained. Yet this is a major success, since the Densus88 wanted to scapegoat Eat as the organizational figurehead and leader of the fake Chaos Star network and of the insurrection itself.

Please remain attentive to the health condition and legal process of Eat and that of the other prisoners. Anarchist comrade Dena remains in the West Java compound, and is also ill from lack of HIV medication. Take action and donate to Palang Hitam/ABC Indonesia. We don’t have enough support to adequately provide infrastructure to such a large number of prisoners at a time when the anarchist movement is under attack in Indonesia. To donate, contact Dark Nights, IWOC UK or any long-running established ABC group.***

Fire to the prisons!

***Correction of Act for Freedom Now!

In a mistaken version of this communication of Palang Hitam/ABC posted on the website of another project, Act for Freedom Now! was cited as a contact for the purpose of sending donations. This is an error.

Act for Freedom Now! is an anarchist project of counterinformation and though it seeks to publicise and spread the means of support to persecuted comrades (and this is emphatically the case when it comes to the comrades of the “Chaos Star” case) it cannot be considered part of an anti-repression umbrella which maintains the relevant contacts and means. It follows that Act for Freedom Now! does not posses the means to get the donations to Palang Hitam, or any other anti-repression fund.

The way to find this is as always is to consult the specific means comrades choose to establish for this purpose (in this case this appears to be to contact “Dark Nights, IWOC UK and long-running established ABC group[s]”)
