MUNICH (GERMANY) : THE TWO ANARCHISTS N. AND M. ARE OUT OF PRISON!

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!

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).

5.mp4

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.

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.

Position of prisoner Giannis Karatsolis from malandrinou prison ( fokidas , Central Greece)

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.

Important Information from Indonesia for International Comrades.

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.

(Greece) 1 year after the loss of Kyriakos

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

October is a month of remembrance and action for the anarchist revolutionary Kyriakos Xymitiris by Dimitra Zarafeta, Marianna Manoura (Grrece)

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.

Thessaloniki, Greece: Responsibility claim for explosion at home of prison officers’ union president Kostas Varsamis by armed organisation ‘Sagre Negra’ [Black Blood]

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 .

(Chile) Update from the 5th, 6th and 7th Weeks of Oral Trial Against Comrades Aldo and Lucas Hernández

September 9, 2025 / informativoanarquista translated by Act for freedom now!

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.

Revolutionary hearts burn forever! pdf cover

——–

In the afternoon of October 31, a massive explosion blew up the third floor apartment of a building in the Ampelokipoi neighbourhood in Athens.

Anarchist comrade Marianna was pulled out from the rubble alive and is in a serious condition in the Evangelismos hospital, in the hands of the police. The anarchist comrade Kyriakos didn’t make it and did not survive. The police and subserviant media talk
of a sudden detonation during the preparation of an explosive device. They say (and write) much more. Chatter that will not find space in these few lines. The antiterrorist unit are foaming at the mouth, excited by the blood of the enemy within to throw in jail (and in the newspapers). The words that count are those of the
comrades, they are the only ones that will be taken into consideration.

An anarchist, somewhere

Rome, Italy: Claim for the burning of 17 cars at the Tesla dealership,Rome, 31 March 2025

Few people in the world today incarnate absolute Evil equal to that of the infamous technocrat billionaire Elon Musk. It would be simplistic though to see him as a classic cartoon “baddie”, a character which none the less suits him perfectly, without realising that this contemptible individual is only the product of an economic and social system marching towards its very self-destruction and that his expansionist ambitions symbolically sum up those of the system itself.

Officially entering the field of politics, all this is exemplified in his servility to Trump, who placed him in the front line of the reactionary, imperialist, sexist and supremacist offensive in course in the United States. In particular, as a prize for his millionaire support to the electoral campaign, the newly-elected president assigned his preferred Dark Maga leadership of the DOGE, body created ad hoc which rapidly spent itself in cuts and reforms aimed directly or indirectly at striking that slice of the population seen by the new elite as “surplus”.

(Italy) Post campaign: Call for long-term solidarity to Alfredo Cospito

We circulate this call out for Alfredo to receive more postal correspondence and we understand that it is also within the framework of the International Week of Solidarity with Anarchist Prisoners, set from 23-30th August. Never a day alone, the anarchist hostages will endure, we’re always with them. Destroy the prisons.

Please, spread widely!

In order to break the isolation to which our anarchist comrade Alfredo Cospito is currently subjected through an almost total ban on mail, we call again to write him postcards and letters. This new callout to write him is also due to news reaching us from the Bancali jail where he’s held prisoner: Alfredo deems extremely opportune to keep on sending him correspondence, even unregistered, even just postcards, with or without sender’s address… If an avalanche of mail arrives, it’ll be more work for the screws working at the jail P.O.
We evaluated that registered mail sent to him is not as necessary as it has been so far, given that over 30 pieces of such mail have been blocked: on this subject, the Surveillance Magistrate must pass sentence: he’s obviously taking his sweet time (lawyers tells us it is standard procedure at the Bancali jail).

$hile: Update on the third and fourth weeks of the trial against compañeros Aldo and Lucas Hernández

On Monday, August 4, the third week of the trial against comrades Aldo and Lucas Hernández began. Both were detained in connection with the investigation into the explosive attack against the National Gendarmerie Directorate.

During these more than 10 days of trial, the evidentiary phase has continued, with various witnesses and experts presenting testimony that supports the prosecution’s case presented by prosecutor Claudio Orellana. Specifically, last week saw the testimony of gendarmerie officials who were at the scene on the day of the explosion. Part of the routes taken by the individuals who planted the device, at least one of whom has been identified by the police as Aldo, have also been revealed, although no material evidence has yet been presented to reliably prove their involvement in the incident.
