On November 22, 2021 Molotov bombs hit the façade of the newspaper El Clarin in Buenos Aires. The action was not vindicated, and a few days later, according to the press, the police had come across a series of surveillance cameras where the attackers were identified on their way to the action.
In December, the police arrested a comrade accused of the attack and he is still in custody.
On March 21, 2022, in various repressive operations carried out by the DUIA (Departamento Unidad de Investigaciones, DN: Anti-terrorist), the police arrested five suspects in the attack. According to police versions, through the use of public transportation cards used in the sector, geo-referencing the use of cellular antennas and surveillance cameras, they were able to build the route of the attackers.
The dubious police astuteness allowed them to use social networks to observe the links between some of the suspects and decide to launch the hunt. In order to define the houses to be raided and the links of the detainees, the police installed a surveillance camera around the home of one of those under investigation.
Five arrests were finally made, but one person was released shortly after, and three comrades and one comrade were brought to justice. All of them charged with the crime of “public intimidation”.
Internationalist solidarity with those arrested for the attack on Clarin!

Argentina: The press aims and shoots
23 March 2022
Yesterday, Monday 21 March, there were about 7 searches in the federal capital and in the western part of its metropolitan area, looking for the people supposedly “suspected” of the attack on the Clarín on 23 November 2021.
The press and the political parties, from left to right, who from the beginning expressed their loud disavowal of what had happened, are now, after four months of calls for repression, finding their “results”; they are trying to build a fictitious criminal network, in order to incriminate the accused under the charge of “criminal association”, under the umbrella of the famous “anti-terrorist law”, passed in 2007.
We can see, therefore, that the supposed evidence that justifies the detention of five people is reduced to relationships through social networks and that the “terrorist connection” is based on the possession of anarchist leaflets, posters or books.
In the midst of the arrests, after the “incidents” that accompanied the agreement with the IMF and the obvious repressive progress of the state, we do not remain silent, we do not give up.
