Meeting to organise an initiative in piazza in solidarity with the comrades on trial, against the 41bis prison regime, against all prisons (Rome 9.06.2022)
The last hearing of the Scripta Manent trial will be held on 27 June at the Court of Cassation, where anarchists will be on trial for subversive association for the purposes of terrorism and other specific offences, including massacre.
On May 5th the comrade Alfredo Cospito, one of the accused in this trial, was placed under the 41bis regime and transferred to the prison of Bancali, Sassari [Sardinia], where he is presently being held.
A regime of downright torture and annihilation, at the height of the Italian repressive system.
This is happening at a time when the crisis of the capitalist system is there for all to see, as new forms of authoritarianism intertwine with a tendency towards generalised warfare.
We are convinced that anarchist ideas and practice constitute an antidote to the catastrophe.
We will not accept our comrades’ voices being silenced.
This move to 41 bis concerns all revolutionaries, all those opposed to this system in word and deed.
We denounce the political and personal responsibility of those who took this heinous measure: from the highest level, the minister Marta Cartabia who signed the order, to the repressive machine of the Anti-Mafia into whose ranks that very Roberto Sparagna, prosecutor in the Scripta Manent trial, has recently returned and been promoted to high office.
We are therefore calling an open meeting in order to organise a street initiative in solidarity with the comrades on trial, against the 41 bis prison regime and against all prisons.
International solidarity with all the comrades struck by the repression. Take action, organise, spread solidarity everywhere.

Thursday June 9th at 6pm, at the social Space 100celle aperte [100 opened cells], via delle Resede 5, Rome, Italy.
Strength and solidarity to Giannis Michailidis, hunger striker from 23/5 until his release from the cages of democracy. He is not and will not be alone against the war of bourgeois justice and the terror of power. Inside and outside the walls our struggle is one until the demolition of the last prison where the State and the judicial mafia indefinitely, vengefully condemn people to a slow death.
