Santiago, Chile: San Miguel prison. Milena Cartes: a new State murder, a new death in prison

publicacionrefractario
After the extermination of 81 prisoners in the San Miguel prison in 2010, the State decides to set the facility up exclusively for women prisoners. The painted ramparts and the woman guards never change the meaning of the prison: the extermination of the prisoners.
Tower 5 was the place where years ago smoke and fire burned in the crematorium ovens of democracy. On January 29, 2022 in that same place, Milena Cartes (50 years old), a prisoner for several months awaiting trial, suffered severe abdominal pains. After days of asking for medical attention and the apathy of the jailers, her situation began to worsen drastically. Her fellow prisoners protested for her to be taken to the doctor, but the guards took her to the prison hospital. Due to the seriousness of her situation, she was transferred urgently to the Barros Luco Hospital.

RUSSIA: Minecraft ‘terrorism’ Russian court sentences 16-year-old to five years in prison over plot to blow up virtual FSB building in video game

On Thursday, February 10, a Russian court handed down sentences for terrorism to three teenagers from the Siberian town of Kansk. The boys were arrested in the summer of 2020 for posting leaflets with political slogans on the local FSB building. After searching their phones and uncovering a “plot” to blow up a virtual rendering of an FSB building in the video game Minecraft, investigators charged the teens with making explosives and training to participate in terrorist activities. On Thursday, a military court in the Krasnoyarsk territory sentenced one of the defendants, 16-year-old Nikita Uvarov, to five years in prison. The two other defendants in the case received suspended sentences.

Thessaloniki: Poster for Solidarity with the Prisoners of War

Poster for Solidarity with the Prisoners of War
WE ARE NOTHING-WE CAN DO EVERYTHING
“We shook the hand of so many comrades! When sometimes we despair
we feel like a knife piercing our palm
the memory of their hand.
And then when we are doing what we have to do, there is a sensation
Something sure and steady in the palm of our hand
as if we held the whole world in our hands.”
TO MEET…
…exchanging looks of complicity behind burning barricades, on nightly dates,
in joint processes, sharpening our consciences, creating comradeships, evolving our strategies, upgrading our practices, gnawing at the foundations of the edifice of domination.
Making mistakes, learning from our “defeats”, alongside old and new comrades.
…WE HAVE THE REASONS
The persecution and imprisonment of fighters will always be another reason for new hostilities.
one more occasion to search, to experiment, to discover unknown paths, one more occasion to attack, taking up a fighting position in the social war that rages, translating our every refusal and desire into action.
THE PRISONERS OF WAR
ARE THE FLESH OF THE FLESH OF THE REVOLUTIONARY COMMUNITY

AND WE WILL DO EVERYTHING TO BRING THEM BACK.

CONSTANT AND CONTINUOUS STRUGGLE WITH ALL MEANS.
UNTIL THE LAST STRONGHOLD OF POWER IS TORN DOWN.
UNTIL ANARCHY.

A banner appeared last night (13/2,2022) in front of the gate of the Greek embassy in Rome: “Freedom for comrade P. Georgiadis”( Rome,Italy)

[GR] Ένα πανό εμφανίστηκε χθες (13/2) το βράδυ μπροστά από την πύλη της ελληνικής πρεσβείας στη Ρώμη: «Λευτεριά στον σύντροφο Π. Γεωργιάδη». Με αυτή την ελάχιστη πράξη δείχνουμε αλληλεγγύη στον σύντροφό μας που δικάζεται σήμερα (14/2). Ελευθερία και συνενοχή με αυτούς που θέλουν να καταστρέψουν αυτό το σύστημα.

Athens, Greece: Poster – Solidarity Demo at Korydallos Prison Saturday 26 February 2022

Call of Solidarity Demo at Korydallos Prison Saturday 26 February 1pm
“Battles have casualties. War has its casualties. But nothing is given to us, nothing is given to us without bloodshed because we reach out our hand. Nothing is won by prayers.”
Thanos Hatziangelou

On Tuesday 8/2, two comrades were arrested following an operation by the “anti-terrorist police”. The reason was the arson at the “Foundation for National and Religious Reflection”. In the house where they were arrested, “incriminating” evidence was found which, under the Terror Law, acquires a “criminal” character. Later, another comrade was arrested. All 3 were remanded in Korydallos prison, prosecuted under the Terror Law (187a) for their participation in the “Anarchist Action Organization”, arson at the “Foundation for National and Religious Concern” and other charges. Comrade Thanos Hatziangelou claimed responsibility for this particular arson and the findings in the house, Comrade Georgia Voulgari defended her choice of having a supporting role in carrying out the action, and Comrade Panos Kalaitzis, whose only connection to the case is his relationship with the house and his comradely, friendly and collegial relations with Th. Hatziangelou, denied all charges.
The war against the state and capital is unceasing, unrelenting and multifaceted. The struggle for equality, freedom and solidarity may have losses, but it will be victorious because justice is on our side.
FREEDOM TO COMRADES TH. HATZIANGELOU
AND P. KALAITZIS
FREEDOM TO COMRADE GEORGIA VULGARI
WAR WITH ALL MEANS AGAINST STATE AND CAPITAL UNTIL SOCIAL LIBERATION

Update about the trial on 14/02/22, of comrades P. Georgiadis, E.M. and M.T.(Athens,Greece)

On 14/2 the trial of comrade Polycarpos Georgiadis, comrade E.M. and comrade M.T. started. The first trial started with the witnesses-parody of the anti-terrorist police, continued with the witnesses of the defence of the three comrades and ended with their “apologies”.
The trial was postponed until Wednesday 2 March, 2022 when the court’s decision is expected.
More than 100 comrades joined the solidarity gathering inside and outside the court, sending the message to the state mechanisms that no comrade is alone in their hands and that their methods will always be answered by the world of struggle.
We call once again for a solidarity gathering at the Court of Appeal (Loukareos) on Wednesday 2 March, at 9am.
NO ONE ALONE IN THE HANDS OF THE STATE!
FIRE TO THE PRISONS!
SOLIDARITY IS OUR WEAPON!

EN/ES: SOLIDARITY WITH THE REPRESSED ANARCHISTS! FIRE TO THE BANKS AND LONG LIVE ANARCHY!(Spain)

On October 29th, 2018 two anarchist comrades from Madrid were arrested accused of a fire sabotage to a Bankia ATM on April 13th of the same year. They have recently received the news that their trial has been dated for April 7, 2022.
The Prosecutor’s Office together with Bankia and Mapfre (the bank’s insurer) are asking for 3 years for Damages and 17,000 euros in Civil Liability. In the police statement, the fact is related to a statement uploaded to counterinformation websites in which the action was vindicated in solidarity with Lisa, sentenced to 7 years (now in third degree) for a bank robbery in Aachen (Germany). They also say that the comrades are recognized anarchists, mentioning identifications at rallies, poster-attachments or arrests in evictions. All this rhetoric is used to justify the ideological aggravant since the comrades, being anarchists, hate the banks, and Bankia in this case would be a victim of this “ideological hatred”.

Greece: Political position of the anarchist prisoner Thanos Hatziangelou on the attack on the IETF (“Foundation for National and Religious Reflection” )

Political position of the anarchist prisoner Thanos Hatziangelou on the attack on the IETF (“Foundation for National and Religious Reflection” )
Gender violence is not just a fact. It is the constantly imposed normality of patriarchal suffocation. Daily femicides, countless rapes and abuses, insulting and ironic comments, questioning and bullying. And when these things receive the divine blessing of the civilized obscurantism that the church is reaping, uncompromising rage takes shape, takes to the streets and seeks a voice. Revolutionary violence is taking responsibility.
On 21/01, yet another piece is added to the puzzle of the cultural rot that dominates social and political life. A 37-year-old priest child rapist is accused of systematic indecency against an 11-year-old girl who attended the catechism of the religious pack of pimps in Patisia(Area of Athens). Sadness, disgust, anger but above all responsibility. Responsibility not to bury yet another incident of so many repulsive events that make up the stench of the sacred mafia. Responsibility to leave nothing unanswered. And responsibility, if not translated into action, is lost in the maelstrom between acceptance and resignation.
