[Poster] FREEDOM for Georgia Voulgaris, P. Kalaitzis, Th. Chatziaggelou

FREEDOM for Georgia Voulgaris, P. Kalaitzis, Th. Chatzianggelou

At dawn on Tuesday 8/2/22, two comrades were arrested following an operation by the “anti-terrorist police”. The reason was the burning of the “Foundation for National and Religious Reflection” in Thessaloniki. In the house where they were arrested, “incriminating” evidence was found which, in the context of the Terror Law, acquires a “felony” character. Later, another comrade was arrested. All three were remanded in Korydallos prison, prosecuted under the Terror Law (187a) for their participation in the organization “Anarchist Action”, the arson of the “Foundation for National and Religious Thought” and other actions.

Anarchist Thanos Chatzianggelou claimed responsibility for this arson and the findings in the house, and later on 10/3/22 he claimed political responsibility for his participation in the organization “Anarchist Action”.

The anarchist Gewrgia Voulgaris defended the choice to have a supporting role in carrying out the action. She remained in custody for 7 months and then the prison board decided to continue her detention under house arrest with an electronic bracelet.

P. Kalaitzis, whose only connection to the case is his relationship with the house and his companion, friendly and collegial relations with T.H. denied all charges and after 7 months of pre-trial detention he was released from prison with restrictive conditions, to sign every 1st and 15th of the month and a ban on leaving the country.

TRIAL TUESDAY 4/4, 9:00am LARISA COURT
The war against the State and capital is unceasing, unyielding and multiform. The struggle for equality, freedom and solidarity may have losses, but it will be victorious because justice is on our side. No criminalisation of anarchist comrades, social and friendly relations.

Assembly of Solidarity with the Prisoners, imprisoned, fugitives and persecuted fighters.

EN/IT : A political intervention of solidarity with the comrade and hunger striker, since 20/10/22, Alfredo Cospito at the Italian Educational Institute in Patission. (Athens,Greece)

(EN) On Friday, March 17th, at the launch of the presentation of the collective volume – tribute to the work of Altiero Spinelli (“a visionary and one of the great ‘fathers’ of European unification”) at the Italian Educational Institute in Patision – Athens (across the NTUA gate), a political intervention of solidarity with the comrade and hunger striker, since 20/10/22, Alfredo Cospito was held.

Interrupting their civil celebration, in the presence of the ambassador of the Italian state Patrizia Falcinelli and the president of the European Movement of Italy Pier Virgilio Dastoli, the president of the Mediterranean Studies department of the University of the Aegean S. Dalis, the vice president of the European Parliament D. Papadimoulis and the former MEP K. Botopoulou, as well as other big business exploiters and their henchmen who were smitten before the elections in the institutional salons, such as the former minister and current MP G. Katrougalos, we shaked for a while the image of their superiority in their field.

The hypocritical “sensitivity” of Europe’s bourgeois democratic politicians and scholars for rights and federalism (of the economies and the capital), in the media image of 2016, when Renzi, Merkel and Hollande paid tribute to Spinelli’s grave (in favor of the foundations of European unity), was forced to be silent in order to hear the speech of the anarchist hunger striker Alfredo Cospito and the fight against 41bis and against the prison.Slogans were heard, flyers were thrown and we made clear to the present representatives of the former government that we do not forget the passing of the new Penal Code and the way it opened for the condition of incarceration here. Our struggles recognize no borders.

Alfredo Cospito – 30 March, 2023 ”Remains dangerous and without a trace of remorse”

Alfredo Cospito – 30 March, ”Remains dangerous and without a trace of remorse”

Today, 4 days after the decision of the Supervisory Court and after the general outcry not only from comrades but also from the whole of the progressive – and not only – world, the Italian media – after days of silence where there is no substantial information about his health condition – are reporting and highlighting the ‘reasons’ for the rejection. Reasons such as the judges’ insistence that Alfredo, in addition to 41bis, ‘could have indicated, organised and communicated hits and targets to the FAI comrades’, with the aim of carrying them out.

At a time when more than 200 lawyers and judges in the country have signed a petition to protest against his illegal detention in 41bis, the media are speaking of the ‘obvious danger’ because of which the court has again rejected the appeal of the defence, bringing back the original decision of the Supreme Court of Rome in December 2022, according to which ‘if Alfredo had remained in maximum security, he would have continued to ‘lean’ on his ‘free associates’ and be a point of reference and a source of indication and planning as to the lines to be followed and the targets to be hit’… .

‘He is extremely dangerous, persistent and unbreakable’

The ‘reasons’ are further explained in the sentence filed today, Thursday 30 March, as follows:

“Computer pirates in action to give solidarity to Alfredo Cospito, the anarchist leader – previously detained in Sassari, now confined to the Opera penitentiary (Milan) – for months on hunger strike against the harsh prison to which he is subjected and which in recent days has been taken to the hospital for medical checkups.

The attack targeted several cigarette vending machines in Sardinia : after entering the computer system, the hackers managed to make the message “Fuori Alfredo dal 41 bis” appear on the screens. And, further down, “Close the 41 bis free all free all”.

International call of the captive member of the organization Anarchist Action Th. Chatziaggelou. (Greece)

For the construction of an international front of defending the Anarchist Action

International call of the captive member of the organization Anarchist Action Th. Chatziaggelou, to the comrades who will defend the case at the trial of the organization on 4th of April, at felony court of appeals in Larisa.

To the ones defending the case of Anarchist Action

Comrades,

After years of sharing with you moments of resistance in the social aspects of the class war, I send you my wholehearted solidarity and appreciation from the dungeons of my captivity.

The trial of the Anarchist Action takes places during a time period of burying the revolutionary tendency and the analysis of the elements of resistance. The absence of an actual revolutionary movement with common positions, strategic aim and values is turning into a reality that is here to permanently stay, which leads to giving space to the normalization of the devaluation of radical actions and thoughts.

(Argentina) Claim for Arson of Federal Police Vehicle

Claim for Arson of Federal Police Vehicle

March 11, 2023

Insurrectional Solidarity with Alfredo.

Subversion may sleep, but it will never disappear!

One night in the first week of february we set a car of the central police force of the PFA on fire. We had a list of their license plates. This “unit” always parked at Urquiza and Av. Belgrano. This action is a return to the path of attack.

It is not solidarity. It is the attack for those who are locked up, dead and clandestine. Down with 41 bis. Strength and brotherhood with Alfrdo.

Strength and brotherhood to the combatant prisoners with long and short sentences.

Determination is our’s, if not now, when !!!!!. Determination is our’s.

subversive delirium group. Circumstantially incendiary.

INTRANSIGENCE TAKEN FROM THE DARDI n°11 – Foglio anarchico aperiodico (Italy)

INTRANSIGENCE (INTRANSIGENZA)

There is nothing more disgusting than executioners when they parade as pitiful defenders of Justice. Nothing is more hypocritical than the statements against capital punishment made by upright State representatives against dictatorial regimes that use it to suppress revolts.

In Iran at least the State has the decency to take responsibility for the deaths of its persecuted, inconceivable for a modern, democratic progressive State, which has far more subtle ways to get rid of them.
After all, why bother to kill the rebels who end up in one’s hands? Better to bury them alive in a concrete hole where time and the resulting physical and mental decomposition will take care of the rest. Provided that they do not rehabilitate, of course, which would mean them surrendering their conscience to become dissociated and collaborators. How many, in Italy alone, even if with different experiences, are in the same condition? And let it be clear, this does not detract from the brutality perpetrated against those who see their freedom and dignity taken away, for a short or long period, within the aseptic perimeter of a prison, suffering torture of all kinds by honest champions of order, family men and sons of the homeland.

Italy: The request for deferral of Alfredo Cospito’s sentence to house arrest rejected by the Supervisory Courts of Milan and Sassari

The request for deferral of Alfredo Cospito’s sentence to house arrest rejected by the Supervisory Courts of Milan and Sassari

27/3/23: The Supervisory Court of Milan replied by rejecting the request for house arrest for health reasons for anarchist prisoner Alfredo Cospito.

At the same time the Sassari court reached the same decision. In both cases with the long motivations already written. The comrade’s behaviour is defined instrumental in obtaining changes in political and judicial decisions.

While contradictions are accumulating within the political and judicial apparatuses (e.g., opinion of the National Anti-Mafia and Anti-Terrorism Directorate, the Attorney General of the Supreme Court, Sibilla re-examination, etc.) each time one is faced with an organ that has the power to resolve the question raised by the comrade’s struggle immediately, the party of the death sentence applies all its political power to block any possible way out.

Political position of the captured member of the OR. Anarchist Action Thanos Hatzianggelou for the beginning of the trial of the Organization on 4 April, 2023 at the Larissa Criminal Court of Appeal. (Greece)

Anarchist Action Does Not Bow to Bourgeois Justice – Message from Thanos Hatziangelou

The cruel and indecisive judges, the ones who in the majority of cases apply harsh sentences – often beyond the limits of human life – the ones who put people in prison for debts of a few thousand euros, those who make illegal and abusive any strike that goes out of the ordinary, those who throw thousands of families who have taken loans from the banks out of their homes, have not condemned ANY politician or executive of big business for plundering public wealth. They have not condemned ANY war criminals for facilitating NATO troops to participate in their criminal interventions in a number of other colonies around the globe. They have not convicted ANY shipowner for the countless environmental violations that poison our lives. They have NEVER condemned pharmaceutical company executives who bribe doctors and government officials to control the drug market, which translates into thousands of deaths of grassroots people. They have hardly condemned any low ranking police officials who murder in the streets, beat mercilessly at demonstrations and rape in police stations. They have not condemned ANY high ranking Greek police officer involved in human trafficking, drug trafficking and smuggling of fuel and cigarettes. They have not convicted ANY high level society rapists who use their financial power on the bodies of the weak by destroying their lives.

– Direct Action Cells

On April 4, the agents of bourgeois justice want to put Anarchist Action in the dock of state terrorism. On the same benches where the state and capitalist crime of Tempe* will be washed away, tyranny will once again face the fighting forces of revolutionary violence, subversion and social liberation.
