Belarusian anarchists given prison sentences from 5 to 17 years

On 6 September Minsk City Court pronounced the verdict in the criminal case of the so-called “international criminal group”. There are 14 anarchists and libertarians, four of whom have left Belarus. The defendants were charged under 10 articles, including the articles on the establishment and participation in a criminal organization (paragraph 1 and paragraph 2 of Article 285 of the Criminal Code) and the establishment of an extremist formation (paragraphs 1 and 3 of Article 361-1 of the Criminal Code). The trial was held behind closed doors.

According to the investigation, from 2005 to 2020 unidentified persons together with anarchist Alexander Frantskevich and human rights activist Martha Rabkova united “a number of organized criminal groups”: “Revolutionary Action”, “National self-defense” and Revolucijna Dia (“Revolutionary Day”). Investigators allege that Frantskevich and Rabkova organized the arson of the Gomel District Tax Inspectorate in March 2017 using “Molotov cocktails.” Read more about the case and its defendants in Russian here.

Carcere La Gonzalina – Rancagua, Chile: Francisco Solar: a complicit greeting

Carcere La Gonzalina – Rancagua,Francisco Solar: a complicit greeting

A complicit greeting

Revolutionary anarchist solidarity is a mutual relationship that indispensably requires a clear and decisive war positioning of the prisoners and milieus in affinity outside. Starting from this basis, this week of solidarity with anarchist prisoners goes to fortify such a relationship upheld in the clash, which is nothing other than the existing complicity that attacks any expression of authority.

Ending assistentialism and victimism means ceasing to see prisoners as a subject who is unaccountable during their temporary condition of confinement. Therefore, it also means breaking with practices that tend towards hierarchization that evolve into authoritarianism. It is imperative to always bear this in mind in order to fortify the anarchist anti-prison struggle.

Greece: Council decision appeal courts on the case of the Anarchist Action Organisation

 Council decision appeal courts on the case of the Anarchist Action Organisation

After 7 months’ detention, the six-month council decided to release comrade Panagiotis Kalaitzis (who will present himself every 1st and 15th of the month), to replace the conditions of detention with house arrest and bracelet for comrade Georgia Voulgari and to extend the pre-trial detention for the captured member of the organization Thanos Xatziagkelou

The new developments, although they foreshadow the collapse of the anti-terrorism indictment, do not mean the end of the struggle on the part of the three comrades.

Terrorism does not bend the imperative right of the revolutionary struggle. Everything continues…

Until the last prison is torn down, no one is free.

Besançon (Doubs) France : Whether in prison or in the hospital, down with power!

[After a first leaflet on the current situation of Boris released on July 28 -Besançon (Doubs): The medical and judicial powers are relentless against Boris-, a second text has just come out, focusing more specifically on the medical power that the comrade is facing…]

Solidarity with Boris
Indymedia Lille, August 13, 2022

The anarchist comrade Boris has been in prison in nancy maxéville since september 2020 for sabotaging two 5G** relay antennas during the first lockdown. He had been in prison for almost a year when, on the morning of August 7, 2021, a fire broke out in his cell. Boris was hospitalized in Metz hospital, then in the intensive care unit of Besançon hospital. He is currently in the palliative care department of the same hospital.

My first concern will be to restore, preserve or promote health (in italics, excerpts from the Hippocratic Oath)

Germany, letter from anarchist prisoner Thomas Meyer-Falk

To give space to the nameless, faceless and voiceless!

Horror, sadness, rage, anger and a feeling of helplessness, of powerlessness. Short-term flaring up of affects and stirring emotions here, long-lasting, persistent feelings there, and all this before what we call mood, it colors our experience background, it is, so to speak, the primordial layer, the ground of feeling.

It is the global warming, what is called “climate crisis”, as if it would be a temporally manageable crisis and not a generation-spreading world change, before whose foil all further conflicts must be read, because a world-spreading cooperation, a togetherness is demanded.

Instead, horrible wars are raging, the one that touches us in Central Europe for very different reasons in the area of Ukraine, but also in Kurdistan, in Syria, in Yemen, in many regions of Africa. Conflicts in South America, in Asia – basically there is no region of the world where military conflicts are not being waged, which in turn lead to even more horror, grief, anger and rage.

Solidarity and complicity with Mónica and Francisco in the face of the demands for sentences solicited by the prosecutors!

July 24 2020 comrades Mónica and Francisco are arrested in a double repressive operation. Power accuses Francisco of sending explosive parcels against the ex Minister of Home Affairs Rodrigo Hinzpeter and the 54th police station of Huechuraba (which took place on July 24 2019, claimed by “Cómplices Sediciosos / Fracción por la Venganza” – “Seditious Accomplices / Revenge Fraction”), while both are accused of the double explosive attack against the Tànica building in the town of Vitacura (action which took place in the midst of the revolt, on February 27 2020, claimed by “Afinidades Armadas en Revuelta” – “Armed Affinities in Revolt”).

During over two years’ prison Mónica has remained in the common section of San Miguel Prison, whereas Francisco was inizially imprisoned in the maximum security section of the CAS (High Security Prison) to then be transferred, along with other comrades in June 2021, to the La Gonzalina di Rancagua prison where he is still being held.
