Banner in Solidarity with Anarchist Prisoners Around the World
May 10, 2023

From the overcrowding of the urban areas in a present that is increasingly immersed in slavery, we rise up and join the gestures of solidarity with the anarchist prisoners around the world, realities that appear distant but which, along with our own local reality, compose a system of global domination against human life and the earth.

Freedom for Alfredo Cospito!
Freedom for Monica Caballero and Francisco Solar!
Long live anarchy!

Italy: Anarchists Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino have been sentenced to 23 years and 17 years and 9 months

2023/06/27

Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino have been sentenced to 23 years and 17 years and 9 months

Pending a more detailed text about the hearing, we are transmiting that on June 26 the Court of Appeal of Turin established the length of the convictions against the anarchists Anna Beniamino and Alfredo Cospito in the Scripta Manent trial, sentencing them to 17 years and 9 months and 23 years respectively. The possibility of a life sentence requested by the prosecutor of Turin during the appeal hearing of 5th December 2022 and subsequently in the latter of 19th and 26th June has therefore definitively been excluded for Alfredo, (while for Anna a conviction of 27 years and one month had been requested).

From the prison of Larissa, Greece: Political statement of the captured member of Anarchist Action Thanos Hatzianggelou on the murders of migrants of Pylos.

Political statement of the captured member of Anarchist Action Thanos Hatzianggelou on the murders of migrants of Pylos.

“…the splendour of patriotism, coffins covered with flags”.

In a country where days of national mourning are like weekends, every national tear for the dead of the social and class war is also a sob of hypocrisy. At the same time as the local alignment with the international anti-immigration policy of terror and death drowns more than 300 people on the Greek sea border, the Greek national team holds a minute’s silence and the political staff conducts memorials for the wronged. What hypocrisy! That the nation should mourn those it murders in order to keep the Greek ideal untainted and ironclad.

Over 300 more names on the long list of those put to death, whose crime was to seek a safer life. 300 more names of those killed by ‘drownings’ at sea borders, vehicle diversions from highway chases and cold-blooded murders at borders and metropolises by the official para-state and its fascist groups. And for all these deaths, the political staff has more militarisation to promise: extension of the Evros fence, reinforcement of the border guard, new cooperation agreements with Frontex, NATO contributions and camps. Because states respond to death with death. Because the murders of migrants are not the problem but the numerical result of the acts themselves.

Athens, Greece: Commando attack in Koukaki area in Athens by Anarchists

Athens, Greece: Commando attack in Koukaki area in Athens by Anarchists

On Thursday 8 June, 23  in solidarity with the anarchist militant Giannis Michailidis, we carried out a raid on Veikou Street in Koukaki, destroying the facades of an elta, a realestate office, a vodafone shop, an s/m bazaar and 2 ATMs.

The above attack on capitalist objectives is aimed at putting pressure on the state mechanisms and those of the justice system that judges, sentences and releases according to political and class criteria, but also at highlighting the hunger strike as a political issue. Giannis’s health condition, already aggravated by last year’s long hunger strike, is in a bad state after more than 30 days of hunger strike. Our comrade’s justice is a fact, he is not alone, he will be supported to the end.

THE PASSION FOR FREEDOM IS STRONGER THAN ALL THE CELLS

Announcement for the end of the hunger and thirst strike by Anarchist Giannis Michailidis.

Giannis Michailidis – announcement for the end of the hunger and thirst strike.

As I complete a cycle of struggles for my release, I feel the need to express my gratitude to those people who fought hard for it all the time in and out of prisons.

The positive outcome of this battle is due to those who have experienced the consequences of repression, to the wider solidarity stream created, to the prisoners who chose to fight with the same means of hunger or thirst strike at my side. But the decisive contribution to every hunger strike belongs to those who suffered, were exterminated, murdered or maimed fighting with this means of struggle. To these people I owe my freedom.

Villepinte (France): Anarchist comrade Ivan Alocco is out of prison.

Villepinte (France): Ivan is out of prison

I was released from prison on June 12.

The investigating judge issued an order placing me under judicial supervision.
The restrictions are :
– a ban on traveling to the Île-de-France neighborhood
– a ban on leaving mainland France
– I must report to the gendarmes once a week
– I have to hand in my passport and identity card at the court clerk’s office.

The investigating judge’s decision to let me out of prison, quite surprising in view of her recent opposition to a request for release, is perhaps due to her desire to “cover up” the incompetence of the JLD. In fact, my lawyers have lodged an appeal for a procedural defect following the last extension of my preventive detention (the January 24 hearing). If the appeal had been accepted, which it probably would have, it would have confirmed that the JLD and her clerk’s office don’t know how to read…

For the time being, the investigation remains open.

City of Patras,Greece: Taking responsibility for the burning of a vehicle of AB Vassilopoulos in solidarity with the anarchist G. Michailidis by Anarchists

Patras- Taking responsibility for the burning of a vehicle of AB Vassilopoulos in solidarity with the anarchist G. Michailidis by Anarchists

We take responsibility for the burning of a vehicle of AB Vassilopoulos, (supermarket chain) a gesture of solidarity with the anarchist comrade G. Michailidis, who has been on hunger strike since 12/5/23 and thirst since 9/6/23 demanding his release from prison, once again putting his body as a barrier to State revenge.
We attacked AB Vassilopoulos, a company-pillar of capital’s attack resulting in poverty, low quality and the plundering of our lives becoming more and more unbearable every day.

Because freedom will blossom on the wreckage of the last prison that will come with the elimination of exploitation, State/capitalist barbarism, the destruction of the natural world, with the building of a world of freedom, equality, solidarity.

FREEDOM TO ANARCHIST COMRADE GIANNIS MICHAILIDIS

Greece: Today, 14/6, /23 the Amfissa Judicial Council decided to release our Anarchist comrade Giannis Michailidis with restrictive conditions.

Comrade Giannis, after a hard struggle where he put his body through a 33-day hunger strike and a 4-day thirst strike, managed to win what he was entitled to and had been demanding since last year: his temporary release on parole. Something he had been forced to demand before with a 67-day hunger strike last year, which he suspended after verbal promises from officials that his request would be granted, which never happened.

So today, 14/6/23 the Amfissa Judicial Council decided to release Giannis with restrictive conditions.

GIANNI, OUR BEST WISHES   FOR A GOOD RECOVERY ….

AND SEE YOU AGAIN IN THE STREETS!

NOTHING IS FINISHED EVERYTHING  CONTINUES!

Athens, Greece: Solidarity with G. Michailidis – Taking responsibility for the burning of vehicles of confinement and surveillance of the speculators, by Anarchists

Athens, Solidarity with G. Michailidis – Taking responsibility for the burning of vehicles of confinement and surveillance of the speculators, by Anarchists

Comrade Giannis Michailidis is again putting his body as a barrage against the State revenge that he has been experiencing for almost a decade, choosing to fight for his freedom once again. Despite the fact that he has served the necessary conditions for his release and almost a year ago he spent 66? days on hunger strike without having his request met practically, the comrade is still declared a preventive detainee. On the legal-judicial pretext that he is not “sufficiently corrected”. With the main demand being for his immediate release, the comrade started a new hunger strike on 12/5 in the midst of a rather difficult situation.

As an anarchist solidarity movement outside and against the prisons of democracy, we have a responsibility and duty through militant and practical solidarity to fight back against the regime of exception and stand in solidarity with the prisoners’ struggles. We are part of this militant effort and the ongoing struggle against prisons. We support the comrade’s hunger strike attempting to break the total isolation and silencing of the struggles of all prisoners. We believe that the hunger strike of the anarchist comrade Giannis Michailidis, as well as many of the prisoners’ hunger strikes, can trigger militant campaigns of a multifaceted movement against prisons and imprisonment, which promotes and disseminates the revolutionary perspective of total liberation.
