Those who decide to rebel faced with the misery implanted at birth only know two destinies: prison and death. We whisper of a third option, ATTACK.

Greece: SOLIDARITY DAY on February 9, 2024, FOR THE FINAL RELEASE OF COMRADE POLA ROUPA & THE IMMEDIATE RELEASE OF COMRADE NIKOS MAZIOTIS EN/ FR / GR / DE / IT / ES

We call comrades in Greece and around the world to be vigilant and act in solidarity:

9/2| SOLIDARITY DAY FOR THE FINAL RELEASE OF
COMRADE POLA ROUPA & THE
IMMEDIATE RELEASE OF COMRADE NIKOS MAZIOTIS

Comrade Pola Roupa and Comrade Nikos Maziotis were sentenced to several years in prison for their participation and action in the guerilla organization Revolutionary Struggle.

They were imprisoned and served the combined 20-year prison sentence to which they were finally sentenced (after the “breaking” of their life sentence for the bombing attack on the Bank of Greece-branch of the European Central Bank-office of the International Monetary Fund in Greece, by Revolutionary Struggle Commando Lambros Fountas).

Comrade Pola Roupa served 8.5 years of real prison (13.5 years mixed), while her partner Nikos Maziotis has already served 11 years of “closed” prison and a total of 14 years mixed. That is, 3/5 of their sentence as state laws dictate.

Comrade Pola Roupa was released from prison with restrictive conditions on November 17, 2023, and a few days later, on November 28, 2023, the deputy prosecutor of Evia filed an appeal against her release, requesting that she be taken back to prison. This unprecedented event led comrade Pola Roupa before a new judicial council at the court of Chalkida on January 10, 2024, in order to judge from scratch whether she will remain free or continue to be a prisoner in the cells of the republic.

Judgment of the Court of Cassation on the action against the League of Villorba: the judgement of the Court of Appeal against Juan Sorroche (26 January, 2024) is confirmed.

Here is a brief update from the website “Il Rovescio” concerning the sentence of the court of cassation of 26th January re the trial against the anarchist comrade Juan Sorroche, presently held in section AS2 of the prison of Terni, for the action against the premises of the League of Villorba (in the province of Treviso) of 12 August 2018 (two devices, the first exploded, the second unexploded and defused by police). Recently, just before the hearing, the comrade published a text for the moment only spread as an attachment to be downloaded (“Piccola analisi del contesto della mia ultima condanna nell’appello di 14 anni e 7 mesi nel periodo di lotta di solidarietà ad Alfredo”), which we will be publishing on this website as soon as possible.

The comrade’s address:

Last 26th January, the Court of Cassation rejected both the appeal of the defence and that of the PM, confirming the sentence of 14 years and 7 months’ prison inflicted on Juan at the appeal trial for the action against the premises of the League of Villorba (Treviso).
Love and rage for Juan and all imprisoned comrades!

UK: Civilization is a cancer. Letter by imprisoned anarchist comrade Toby Shone

Letter by imprisoned anarchist comrade Toby Shone

“It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.”

– Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

Some matters should be denounced in the strongest terms, one of these is the way prisoners health is addressed. Neglect and mistreatment are endemic, if not malice, institutionalised. I was scheduled an MRI scan and blood tests for tumour markers in late October 2023 at the Bristol Royal Infirmary. I should have been put on medical hold and provided that treatment, but I was transferred to the long term High Security Estate where I did not receive the blood test by the prison medical team until late December. The results of those blood tests have never been disclosed to me by the prison medical authorities. In fact, I only got the results after a comrade called my Bristol NHS Oncology Unit.

Twice the prison team have failed to facilitate a telephone consultation with my doctor to receive the blood test outcome. The prison medical system has totally failed in every way to provide continuity in my oncology pathway. My scheduled MRI scan, which I have not been given any information about, is not being declared to me for fear I will use the opportunity to make an escape.

Greece: Thanos Chatziangelou|…firm steps to the end

Don’t stop me. I’m dreaming.

We’ve lived bent over centuries of injustice.

Centuries of loneliness.

Now don’t. Don’t stop me.

Now and here and forever and ever and everywhere.

I dream of freedom…

I dream because I love.

Big dreams in the sky

Don’t ask. Don’t stop me.

It’s now to restore

the supreme act of moral right.

To make a poem of Life.

And Life into action.

It’s a dream that I can I can I can

I LOVE YOU

And you don’t stop me I don’t dream. I’m living.

I’m waiting! I’m waiting for those looks, those looks, those looks, those looks, those looks, those looks, those looks. Fearful faces behind the robes of blind justice. Sons and daughters – the genetic children of Themis – critics of justice, who steel their filth with the law of silence. And in their path, the fates of men dragging against the earth like a ragged rag.

Treviso, Italy: Juan Sorroche. A call to all comrades for an energetic presence at the cassation trial on January 26 in Rome for the action at the League of Treviso

  Juan Sorroche. A call to all comrades for an energetic presence at the cassation trial on January 26 in Rome for the action at the League of Treviso

A call to all comrades for an energetic presence at the Cassation trial in Rome on January 26 2024 for the action at the League of Treviso. Or what each individuality feels with creativity being the only limit.

On January 26th the Cassazione trial against me is due to take place in Rome for the action at the League of Treviso. l’azione alla Lega di Treviso.

—In the first instance trial, even after the PM removed the charge of political massacre, they sentenced me to 28 years’ prison plus 3 years’ parole.

— On Appeal they sentenced me to 14 years and 7 months, reducing it almost by half.

The prosecution made an appeal to the court of Cassation to have it negatively requalified, so as to go back to the preceding sentence of 28 years and three on parole, or worse.

My lawyer has also appealed, given the sentence to 14 years and 7 months, which are not peanuts.

Now I won’t be present at any of the hearings of the trial for the action at the League of Treviso, in protest against videoconferencing, as I already declared during the first instance trial. This is what I have done up until now.

Prison of San Remo, Italy:  Luca Dolce, aka Stecco: – Letter from the prison of Sanremo

Prison of Sanremo

This is not a communique. You will not read reflections on my arrest or concerning this new prison experience, or about other political questions. These will come at the appropriate moment, that is, when I consider some personal matters settled, and some reflections have matured over these first months of detention.

This humble piece has the simple purpose – for me necessary – to thank, greet, and bring solidarity even from within these walls.

I waited a little before deciding to put down these words, even if the decision to put them on paper had already been made the evening of December 4th, day of the hearing at the court of Imperia for the fake ID found on me the day that my experience as a fugitive was ended by an operational group of the Nocs.
