News of our comrade Gabriel Pombo Da Silva

source : Inferno Urbano / Monday, November 21, 2022

Unfortunately, the situation of our comrade has not changed much. Here’s a summary of some new developments after our last statement, published online last April.

Until now, we have always said that, from a legal point of view, one of the problems to be solved is a deliberate confusion about which penal code to be applied. The 1973 Code (which would give a sentence of 30 years, with the application of different remissions of sentence, accumulated over decades), in force at the time of the sentence for the events of 1990. Or the 1995 Code (which would give a sentence of 20 years, without the application of remissions), more favorable to the accused in terms of the length of the sentence. Remember that, in theory, they should always apply the Penal Code that is more in favor of the defendant, but we know what “always” changes depending on who the defendant is. Gabriel continues to be who he has always been and his determination, consistency and clarity certainly do not work in his favor.

Wuppertal (Germany): solidarity arson of a Siemens van

via:sansnom

——

Nothing is finished, everything begins! Lützerath is now also in Wuppertal. A Siemens van set on fire!

source: https://de.indymedia.org/node/252039

One year after the eviction from the Osterholz forest*, we set fire to a Siemens van on the morning of Wednesday, January 25, in the Sperlingsgasse in Wuppertal-Nützenberg. Siemens is one of the large corporations involved in the exploitation of brown coal in North Rhine-Westphalia as well as in Lützerath, profiting from this dirty business. The crimes for which Siemens is also responsible are summarized here by another action group.

We say basta to the exploitation of people, animals and nature! Let’s continue to fight for a better world with the most diverse forms of action! Lützerath can be a big step forward for the climate movement. Let’s not give up!

Berlin: two cars of a security company go up in smoke

Translated from German via Sozialer Zorn, January 28, 2023
(from Tagesspiegel)

Two vehicles of a security company were set on fire on Saturday morning on Köpenicker Straße in the Berlin district of Mitte. On January 28, around 5:30 a.m., the police suddenly heard a loud bang and shortly afterwards discovered the two cars in flames.

The fire department arrived on the scene to extinguish the fires completely. The side windows of the vehicles were broken and remains of pyrotechnic devices were found inside. The police are assuming political motivation, and the State Security [Staatsschutz] has been put in charge of the investigation.

Milan, Italy: Anarchist Alfredo Cospito has been transferred to San Paolo hospital in Milan Written February 11, 2023

Milan: Alfredo Cospito has been transferred to San Paolo hospital in Milan
Written February 11, 2023

Alfredo Cospito, on hunger strike for 115 days, was transferred this afternoon from Opera prison to San Paolo hospital in Milan, in one of the rooms reserved for prisoners in 41 bis. It seems that Alfredo has been admitted to the ward of penitentiary medicine of the Milanese hospital on indications of the doctors of the clinical centre of Opera where he had been since January 30th.

Alfredo Cospito’s critical health conditions had already been reported by Andrea Crosignani, doctor on his side who had visited him precisely this Saturday morning in the prison of Opera. “He weighs 71 kilos and chili ed è at risk of cerebral oedema and potentially fatal cardiac arrhythmias.” This is what Crosignani referred to the lawyer Flavio Rossi Albertini after his visit today. But Alfredo is determined to go ahead with the protest. He is lucid and walks on his own two legs.

Although I tried to convince him to take potassium again to reduce the risk of these arrhythmias. The parameters are holding, but it takes little for the situation to precipitate without any particular warning signs”.

Milan, Italy: Clashes at demonstration for Alfredo Cospito, firecrackers and bottles against police. 11 arrested, 6 cops wounded

Milan,: Clashes at demonstration for Alfredo Cospito, firecrackers and bottles against police. 11 arrested, 6 cops wounded

milano.corriere.it

«Against 41bis. For a world without prisons, freedom for everyone». This is the banner behind which the anarchist demonstration was held in Milan in solidariety with Alfredo Cospito, imprisoned under a «harsh prison» regime at the San Paolo hospital and on hunger for over three months. In over four hundred – most from Milan, – they set off just after 17.00 from piazza XXIV Maggio in the direction of viale Col di Lana, where the shopkeepers had pulled down the shutters to protect themselves against vandalism. In front, prima fila, with helmets on their heads, a group of demonstrators with a banner tied to plastic panels. At the start, a few water balloons were thrown from the march in the direction of the journalists. In Viale Bligny the first damages: the window of a bank and that of an estate agency were hit.

Paper bomb throwing and police charges.

Tension rose when the demonstration reached Porta Romana. Just before Piazzale Medaglie d’oro the police tried to stop the procession. The anarchists who tried to ‘break through’ the security cordon were repelled with shields and batons. A dense throwing of firecrackers and bottles followed. Then the police tried to channel the march along Viale Sabotino: the two sides came into contact several times. In the most agitated phases tear gas was also used, while the demonstrators threw paper bombs at the police.

Bologna: Anti-prison bike demo in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito, against 41 and life sentence without appeal.

For over 100 days Alfredo Cospito has been on hunger strike. His is a battle against the torture of 41 bis and a life sentence without appeal. But even more so, it is the battle of those who do not want to remain defenceless in the face of the violence that the jails, the courts, the unjust ‘justice’ of this system unleashes daily on thousands of people.
DI STATO SI MUORE. [OF THE STATE YOU DIE]

However it turns out, Alfredo will not fight alone.

EVERYBODY FREE!

Santiago: Alfredo out of 41 bis! Protest outside the Italian embassy in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito on hunger strike for 107 days (3 February 2023)

On February 3rd 2023, at over 100 days’ hunger strike of the comrade Alfredo Cospito against the brutal isolation of 41 bis in the cells of Italy, about 50 of us called a protest in front of the Italian embassy in order to put internationalist solidarity into practice.

The anarchist and subversive prisoners in the Chilean prisons have started a fast in solidarity with Alfredo’s hunger strike. In this context and despite the considerable presence of police armed with water cannon and tear gas, we managed to push our way in front of the walls protecting the representatives of the Italian government, the same government that is currently taking the assassination of Alfredo upon itself behind the bars.

Sabotaging the daily routine (continued)

Gare de l’Est: why is the interruption of traffic due to a “sabotage” so prolonged?
Le Parisien, January 24, 2023

“It’s titanic,” agrees an agent, this Tuesday afternoon, regarding the extent of the damage, which explains the interruption of train traffic at Gare de l’Est, all day Tuesday. In front of him, on the ground, a tangle of cables of all kinds. On the side, two others patiently arrange portions of fiber optics, “it’s like long hair that is tangled”.

During the night of Monday to Tuesday, a fire broke out near the railroad tracks at Vaires-sur-Marne.

The alert was given to the police station of Noisiel around 4:35 am, says the prosecutor of Meaux. The public prosecutor of Meaux specifies that, according to the first indications of the investigation, entrusted to the judicial police of Meaux, “a first box housing electrical cables had been set on fire after two concrete panels barring access to the trap door where this box is inserted in the ground had been removed and deposited,” he said. “A second box, located on the other side of the tracks, accessible through a tunnel under the tracks, had also been damaged by fire.” In total, 48 cable arteries, or about 600 electrical cables, were damaged. The equivalent of 4 km in length.

Vaires-sur-Marne, le 24 janvier 2023. Environ 600 câbles de la SNCF ont été endommagés par un incendie volontaire, sous la voie ferrée. La circulation a été interrompue toute la journée.

About the murder of Kostas Fragoulis (Athens,Greece)

About the murder of Kostas Fragoulis

On 13/12 it was announced that Rom Costas Fragoulis is now dead. On5/12, after 16 year old Kostas refused to pay 20 euros for petrol, he was chased by DIAS cops, who shot him with 2 bullets in the head. Before we even knew about his final state of health and while the family wasn’t receiving any information either, the cop killers were already set free.

This murder unfortunately does not catch off guard, as we do not forget the murder of another Rom, Nikos Sambanis in October 21 with 38 bullets in the back of the head, where once again the killers were pampered by the bourgeois “justice”.

Roma communities vehemently refuse to adapt to the norms created by Greek capitalism. And rightly so! In any case, the only “efforts” of the state to include them in the social fabric and remove their marginalization are to fit them into its molds, to “civilize” them and use them as cheap labor, as it does with all social groups that do not conform to the dominant model. When it has no need for this, it feeds their ignorance in a whole host of ways, culminating in the murder of a child for which it will not budge.

The message “whoever can’t adapt, dies” is now clear from the state’s side and is being transmitted every day. Whether it is the daily oppression and ghettoisation, the criminalization of the Roma, or the shooting of the Roma, Greek society has been educated in the narrative that the Roma are less than human and therefore deserve all this. That’s why we see people applauding the cops who killed Kostas, just like they did in the case of Sambanis. That’s why the Roma communities have taken the whole struggle for vindication on their backs; and one shouldn’t have to wonder how and why.

Enijoy car fires in Milan

On the night of January 30th, several Enijoy cars were damaged with fire in response to Alfredo’s transfer from Sassari prison to that of Milan. This is the first action claimed, but not the first carried out, by the BANDE ANARCHICHE – NUCLEO GUERRIGLIA [‘Anarchist Bands – Guerrilla Nucleus’]. One of our comrades will die at the hands of the state, it’s our turn to take the leap. Fire to the prisons.

Bologna: From a cell in 41 bis an anarchist is making a State tremble – Leaflet given out at the gathering on February 3rd

Written February 5th 5, 2023

We receive and publish the leaflet distributed on Friday 3 February during the gathering, then demonstration, that moved from the Regional Penitentiary Administration Department to the juvenile prison.
In late afternoon of Friday 3 February in Bologna, a protest was held outside the headquarters of the Regional Penitentiary Administration Office, with noise, speakers and banners in solidarity with Alfredo against life imprisonment without appeal and 41 bis. Surrounded by a barrage of cops and journalists, a hundred or so comrades then moved along Via del Pratello where a large writing read ‘No 41 bis. Like Iran and Egypt, Italy also tortures and condemns to death’. The demonstration ended outside the juvenile prison where there were repeated riots in December. Alongside Alfredo! Let’s keep coming out into the streets!

From a cell of 41 bis an anarchist is making a State tremble!

Alfredo Cospito, along with 749 other prisoners, is buried deep in the dungeons of the 41bis regime. And it is precisely from the most hidden place in which the State’s vengeance against its most bitter enemies is carried out that he began his struggle: since 20 October 2022, he has been on an unremitting hunger strike against the 41bis regime and life imprisonment without appeal, i.e. the hard prison regime and life imprisonment without access to alternative sentences.

These two prison institutions are the clearest and most straightforward expression of what the State is: power ruled by institutionalised violence and vengeance.

Traffic disrupted at the Gare de l’Est in Paris after a fire caused by a “malicious act”.
France Info/France 3 Grand Est/Le Parisien, January 24, 2023

Bad surprise for SNCF users. The traffic at the Gare de l’Est in Paris will be interrupted “all day” following a “fire of electrical cables”, announced Tuesday, January 24, which had initially expected a resumption at 10 hours. The Minister of Transport, Clément Beaune, and the SNCF have denounced an “act of malice” in a signal box that has caused the total interruption, at the departure and arrival of the Parisian station of the traffic of TGV and TER, as well as the line P of the Transilien.

Around 8:30 am, the SNCF said that it was an act of deliberate vandalism: “The act of malice is proven: a deliberate fire on the sheaths of electrical power supply cables of signaling and switching facilities is the cause of the interruption of traffic. The diagnosis is still underway,” reads the page dedicated to the incident. “There was an act of deliberate vandalism,” confirmed Anne-Marie Pannier, head of SNCF Réseaux in Ile-de-France, who said that SNCF gutters were opened and 48 cables located inside were burned.” The consequences are that all the signaling stations no longer receive quality and reliable information that is required to run trains safely on the network,” explained Anne-Marie Pannier late this morning.

The Twitter page of Line P reports “a fire in a technical room in the Vaires sector” (Seine-et-Marne) and “a signaling incident” in another sector, with a photo of the cables that burned.
