I was released from prison on June 12.
The investigating judge issued an order placing me under judicial supervision.
The restrictions are :
– a ban on traveling to the Île-de-France neighborhood
– a ban on leaving mainland France
– I must report to the gendarmes once a week
– I have to hand in my passport and identity card at the court clerk’s office.
The investigating judge’s decision to let me out of prison, quite surprising in view of her recent opposition to a request for release, is perhaps due to her desire to “cover up” the incompetence of the JLD. In fact, my lawyers have lodged an appeal for a procedural defect following the last extension of my preventive detention (the January 24 hearing). If the appeal had been accepted, which it probably would have, it would have confirmed that the JLD and her clerk’s office don’t know how to read…
For the time being, the investigation remains open.
Last week, on June 5, the ELAC team at Villepinte prison once again (the sixth in six months) searched my cell. My belongings were overturned, a self-made shelf destroyed and my (received) letters strewn about (as if the administration hadn’t already had time to read and photocopy them at their leisure). They searched almost exclusively my belongings, almost without disturbing my cellmate.
One guard even took the liberty of being ironic, commenting on an inscription on the cell door (“Anarchy – freedom”) with a “don’t count on it”…
When I got out, the prison clerk’s office handed me a large parcel of mail (letters that had arrived since the beginning of May and those I’d written in the same period) that was “lying around”. There was also a parcel that arrived on July 22, 2022 (with anarchist periodicals and books in Italian) that the prison had decided not to give me.
Many thanks to all those who stood by me during this difficult period.
Thanks to the Cassa Antirepressione delle Alpi Occidentali and the Bure solidarity fund, for their financial support.
A thought for the compas (and also for all the others) who remain in prison.
Fire to the prisons, fire to the State.
Long live Anarchy!
