“Steadfastness in revolutionary practice” – Discourse at gatherings outside the prisons of Terni and Spoleto
(1/11/2022)
We are writing these lines on the occasion of the gatherings planned for 1st November 2022 outside the prisons of Terni and Spoleto in conjunction with the call for struggle launched through the hunger strike by anarchist comrade Alfredo Cospito, locked up in the prison of Bancali; a hunger strike which has also been joined by anarchists Juan Sorroche, locked up in the prison of Terni and Ivan Alocco, locked up in the French prison of Villepinte.
The contribution, both theorical and pratical, that some of the imprisoned comrades have given to the anarchist movement throughout the years, and which they continue to give from inside the infamous cages built by the democratic regimes, still finds a way to escape and become uninterrupted, unmediated borderless agitation between the proletariat and the exploited all over the world: from Chile to France, from Spain to Italy.
On the 5th of May 2022, imprisoned anarchist Alfredo Cospito received notification of his transfer from “Maximum Security 2” to “41 bis”. The decree was ordered by former minister of justice Marta Cartabia.
On July 6th 2022, the Court of Cassation requalified the explosive attack against the school of carabinieri of Fossano of June 2006, claimed by Rivolta Anonima e Tremenda / Federazione Anarchica Informale, which the comrades Anna Beniamino and Alfredo Cospito were accused of, as “Political Massacre”, deferring to a worsening calculation of the sentence that could even become mandatory life imprisonment.
